Thematic quests
If you want to prepare not just a search for a gift from notes, but a real adventure with a plot, we recommend organizing a thematic quest. This is an interesting twisted story that players must solve through riddles and puzzles. At the end of the game, participants receive not only a resolution, but also prizes to which a chain of correct answers will lead them. You can come up with a quest on almost any topic, the main thing is that it is interesting to the guests of your event. Some of the most popular are detective and pirate quests, since they are based on a rather complicated plot and contain many non-standard tasks and puzzles. For such quests, it is important to create an atmosphere in the spirit of the game’s plot so that the participants can be completely transported into the story.
