How does an online ScaVenture (eg Israel Quarantine Quest) work?
- This is an online team challenge that can be played from home or anywhere in the world.
- You assemble your group (you can be physically together or separate), you divide your group into teams and each team competes against the other to complete missions within a set time. Missions are completed in stages and as teams gather enough points in each stage the next stage is opened.
- Teams work together to complete the missions and create videos or photos that prove that they have done that.
- There is a mix of mission types that include anything from researching a random topic, to putting together an online game to challenging someone to a lip sync competition. All games have an element of “doing good” in the world as part of the game.
- The game is played on our platform and our staff run the game and give you any technical support that you need.
- Each team will need a computer and at least one phone per location of participant for taking pictures/filming clips.
