Treasure Hunter Live — GPS treasure hunt game
How it works

Open the map.
Step outside.

GPS-driven, story-rich treasure hunts that turn your neighbourhood (or anywhere you're travelling) into a place worth exploring on foot.

01

Find a hunt nearby

Browse community-created hunts in your area, or download a curated city tour. From 30 minutes to a whole afternoon.

02

Follow the clues

GPS guides you toward each clue location. Solve riddles, decode photos, or simply find the marker. Family-safe pacing.

03

Claim the prize

Hunts can end at a real prize (book a restaurant, a treat in the post, or a hidden cache). Or just at the joy of having gone outside.

Why it works

off your phone (almost).

GPS-based gameplay

Why this matters

Most apps want you to look at the screen.
Treasure Hunter Live wants you to look up.

Geocaching-style adventure has been around for decades, but the apps stayed clunky and the hunts looked like spreadsheets. Treasure Hunter Live is the version that actually feels like an adventure — for kids, for couples, for teams.

It's the app we kept reaching for at family birthdays, hen-do weekends, and away-days. So we built it. Now it's yours.

Outside

The whole point. We measure success in steps taken, not minutes opened.

Family-safe

Kid mode caps walking distances, vets clues, and lets parents review the whole route.

Yours

Hunts. Build them, share them privately, or publish to the community. You decide.

FAQ

The basics.

Is this safe for children?

Yes — kid mode constrains walking distance, prohibits crossing major roads in the route, and lets parents review every clue before the hunt starts.

How accurate is the GPS?

±5–10m typically. Clue radii are tunable so 'reach this spot' isn't frustratingly precise. Indoor venues use Bluetooth beacons (Plus).

Can I make a hunt without writing it from scratch?

Yes — Plus has hunt templates for birthdays, anniversaries, team away-days, city tours, and more. Drop your start/end points, we fill in the rest.

Will it work where I live?

Anywhere with a map and walkable streets. We've had hunts run in 60+ countries. Truly remote locations may benefit from Plus offline mode.

Do I need data on the hunt?

Free hunts need data. Plus hunts download fully — perfect for the countryside, the underground, or kids without their own data plan.

Can I hide real treasure?

Sure — many users do. We don't manage physical prizes; the hunt simply ends at a GPS point you choose. Real chest, real gift, real high-five.

Is it just for kids?

Definitely not. Adult hunts (date nights, hen-dos, team-builds, pub crawls) are some of the most active categories.

Step outside.

Free to download. iPhone and Android. The world is the map. Today is the day.
