About this game

PingHunt turns the real world into a game.

Create your own GPS-based scavenger hunts, send friends and family out to find hidden waypoints, and use the camera to prove they found the right spot. Whether you are planning a birthday activity, a family adventure, a school challenge, a city walk, or a fun outdoor game with friends, PingHunt makes it easy to build and play real-world hunts.

Instead of just following a list of clues, players use their phone to move through the real world. The app guides them with a radar-style interface, helps them get closer to each waypoint, and then asks them to match the location with the camera.

Create a hunt anywhere
Build your own scavenger hunt by choosing real-world locations and saving reference photos for each waypoint. Hide spots in a garden, around a park, across a city center, at a museum, on a school campus, or anywhere else you want people to explore.

Play with GPS and camera verification
Players follow the hunt using GPS guidance and then use the camera to confirm they have found the correct place. It is not just about arriving near a location. Players need to look around, recognise the spot, and line up the camera view with the saved reference photo.

Great for families, friends, schools and events
PingHunt is designed for simple, playful real-world adventures. Use it for:
• Birthday parties
• Family walks
• Outdoor games
• City treasure hunts
• School activities

Private or shared hunts
Create a hunt for your own group and share it privately, or discover public hunts when available. PingHunt works well for small personal activities as well as larger outdoor challenges.
