What’s a ScaVenture?
On an offline ScaVenture, you will navigate your way through streets, alleys and markets, engaging with sites and stories. On an online ScaVenture (sometimes known as Quarantine Quests) you will play a themed group game, engaging with friends, families and groups from wherever you are in the world! Let’s escape the ordinary, enjoy this awesome world and stay safe together! We like to think of our games as a cross between a scavenger hunt and adventure of discovery – that’s why we call them ScaVentures!
