What is a quest?
A quest is a wonderful way to spend time with your loved ones at home, in the country, or in nature. The game is a chain of tasks and riddles written on cards.

Tips and recommendations for organizing a quest
So, the birthday boy is available. The decision to conduct a birthday quest to find a gift has been made. The location (at home, in the country, in nature) and the approximate scenario have been approved. A gift - the main prize of the game - has been purchased. It's time to start preparing for this fun event.
Preparation
Our task is to turn congratulations and gift giving into an unforgettable show, the main character of which will be the birthday person. Quests to find a gift for a man and a woman do not have any special distinctive features. The most important thing is to take into account the tastes and preferences of the hero of the occasion.
We act according to plan:
- We decide on the place where the main prize-gift will be hidden.
- Find secluded places where intermediate clues will be located. The selection criterion is unexpected, unpredictable “hides”, the path to which can be interestingly guessed or encrypted.
- Prepare tasks for the quest. Come up with tips for finding a gift, decorate it beautifully, and put it into “secret places.” Make sure they are securely hidden. Otherwise, a fairly observant birthday person may discover an extraordinary clue that will confuse the course of the game and the order of the chain of steps.
- Plan your route so that the birthday person does not get too close to the main prize. This will eliminate the situation when a player accidentally “comes across” a gift after two or three hints.
- You can make yourself a so-called “layout map” to, if necessary, guide the player and control his path. A plan of the apartment, on which the locations of all hidden clues will be marked, as well as the order in which they should be solved.
Tips at the start
A few recommendations will help organize the game so that this holiday will be remembered for a long time by its participants, and all its details will be repeatedly remembered and proudly retold to friends and acquaintances.
- The number of links in the chain depends on the activity and curiosity of the birthday person. For a modest “not a fan” of noisy entertainment, 5-6 steps to the goal will be enough. In this case, the game will not end at lightning speed, but will not tire the hero of the occasion. But a funny and lively fan of quizzes and crossword puzzles can be safely loaded with 10-15 steps.
- Intermediate assignments should not be too difficult. After all, our goal is not to test the player’s erudition, but to give him unforgettable pleasant emotions and impressions. But too easy hints will make the game uninteresting, and victory will not bring proper pleasure.
- Small gifts on the way to the main prize will cheer up the player and make the quest more exciting and enjoyable. Attach notes to chocolates, hand-drawn cards. Accompany the prompts with other cute little things that will bring a smile to the birthday boy’s face. After all, our goal today is his good mood.
- Each of the clues can be either a riddle or a veiled description of a “cache”. For example, you can write a riddle about a microwave oven:
For many years now She has been warming my dinner.
Or you could describe it as “a place where some of those present once dried their socks.” Such a fleeting memory of a funny story will add smiles and positive emotions to the game.
Quest plot
We all know that when a company gathers at a festive table, some chatter tirelessly, while others are less talkative and eloquent. This is most noticeable when a company gathers at a general holiday in which some people do not know each other closely. At such a moment, the holiday organizer must create the most comfortable atmosphere for everyone so that the guests relax. It was for this purpose that the cheerful and perky quest “Wah-wah, genatsvale” was written, which translated means (what a great fellow you are, my friend). Therefore, to the questions: how to entertain guests or what table games and competitions to hold during the holiday, you now have an answer! Thanks to this quest, all guests present will be able to take turns making cheerful and funny Caucasian toasts, which they will solve, and all those present will be able to drink to these toasts. There are 10 toasts in total in the quest, and there is also an 11th card, which provides the MAIN Caucasian wisdom (see image on the left). This card can be deciphered only if your guests solve the previous ones. Thus, having solved 10 cards and drunk 10 witty Georgian toasts for the implementation, all participants will become a single team and will be able to join forces to solve the 11th card. The quest organizer can additionally think over a comic thematic style (image) of the participants (long caps, mustaches, false noses). Or, for example, each participant who makes a toast must put on a cap prepared in advance by the organizer, a false mustache and a long nose, and at the moment of making the toast, the participant speaks with the appropriate Georgian accent. And after making a toast, all participants loudly say in response: “Wah-wah genatsvale” and drink together for the toast. Also, if necessary, you can think of incentive comic gifts (a bottle of chacha, a plastic dagger, a rolled-up cigarette or packaged pita bread
