Interesting quest tasks: indoors and outdoors

What types of quests are there?

Puzzles, rebuses, ciphers, riddles, labyrinths and so on. The player's task is to solve such a puzzle.

Using props

For example:

various hiding places,
mechanisms,
sympathetic ink,
locks
and others.

The player's task is to correctly activate the props.

For example, click on certain parts of the box to open a hiding place, reveal sympathetic ink, and so on.

Active actions

For example, collect ingredients and brew a potion, cross an obstacle, collect an artifact, pass a pirate test, and so on.

Tasks with AR (augmented reality).

Any household item can be used in the game.

For example, in this task from the “New Year’s Quest” the player needs to “light” a garland by numbers in order to see the object in which the clue is hidden.

If the player does everything correctly, he will see the silhouette of a chair.

Tasks for quests at school , as a rule, are associated with active actions or the possibility of dividing into teams.

After all, the number of players at the school festival is greater than at home, and at the same time it is also necessary to provide each player with the opportunity to prove themselves.

And, tasks in a cafe may be limited to one table or lounge.

Office assignments may be related to the specifics of the company's activities and office facilities.

And such a task is in the “Superheroes” quest. To see the name of the cache, you need to find and complete 2 parts of the clue.

Outdoor quest tasks

Tasks for quests in nature, in the forest, on the street, in the city or in the country, involve walking and the relative distance of the quest objects from each other.

In this case, both stationary and natural objects can be involved, for example:

trees,
concrete buildings,
lanterns
and so on.

So are the introduced objects.

For example,
trunk,
checkboxes,
snacks
and so on.

For example, in this task from the quest “In Search of Treasure,” players need to rearrange the letters.

If they do it correctly, they will be able to find the desired object.

In this case, it's the trunk.

The tasks in quests for children take into account their age and skills.

So, for children who do not yet know how to read, graphic or active tasks are used.

And in the “Letter Eater” quest there are tasks that allow you to improve your reading skills.

Photo quest for schoolchildren “Mysteries of Time” will be held in Aniva

On October 20, the photo quest “Riddles of Time” starts in Aniva.

“Photoquest is not a pure quest where you have to solve some problems all the time. This is a fusion of photography and travel, quickness of mind and not blindly moving around a picturesque city. But creativity is still crucial. The goal of the participants is to find an object (building, structure) encrypted in a text or graphic riddle, read a QR code with a photo theme, and take interesting and original photographs. The best of them will be exhibited at the Aniva Museum of Local Lore and will be posted on the website of the Central Library named after. P.N. Romakhina. The winners will receive prizes. The award ceremony will take place on October 27 at 2 p.m. in the library,” the district administration says.

Teams of schoolchildren of up to 4 people, aged 14 years and older, are allowed to compete.

At the start, participants will receive envelopes with tasks, according to which they will have to find 5 encrypted places (objects) in the city. The key to the ciphergrams will be the players’ own knowledge of the history of Aniva, as well as local history publications from the library’s collections. Players have the right to a hint, but 0.5 points are deducted for this. If the hint did not help, the organizers will tell you the answer, but will deduct 1 point.

According to the district administration, at each of the decrypted objects, after reading the found QR code, players will receive themes that will need to be translated into a photographic image. The code is read using a special program on the phone (downloaded before the start). If the phone cannot read the QR code, then the participant can call the organizers, and they will dictate the task orally. No points will be deducted for this. It is not necessary to photograph objects. For photography, 5 task topics will be offered, therefore, 5 photographs will have to be submitted at the finish line. Each photograph must have an author's title. You are allowed to photograph everything that, in your opinion, corresponds to the task. Filming in residential premises is prohibited. You are allowed to move around the city by any means and use any means of transport. Filming is permitted only on the territory of the Aniva district. Photo editing in Photoshop and other professional programs is prohibited. You can use camera settings and process photos in simple editors.

Participation in this competition is possible with cameras, tablets, phones and other digital devices. The method of movement of the team around the city is not regulated by the organizers. Applications for participation in competitions are accepted at the museum or immediately before the start.

The meeting place, start and finish of the competition is the library (from the museum side). Registration of participants is at 11:00. The photo quest starts on October 20 at 11:30. Finish: October 20 at 17:00.

The winner of the photo quest is the team with the minimum time to complete all tasks, taking into account the fines imposed, and who has scored the highest number of points for photo work.

Rating system:

— The quality, originality of tasks and their relevance to the topic are taken into account.

— For each photo, a team can receive from 0 to 15 points. — The overall grade is formed from the sum of points for all tasks.

— finishing (transferring photos to the organizers) after 17:00 on October 20;

— non-compliance by participants with competition rules. The organizing committee has the right to exclude from the competition personnel who grossly violate the rules or generally accepted ethical standards.

Recommended team equipment: waterproof shoes, comfortable clothes, a thermos of hot tea and a couple of delicious sandwiches. But the main thing is a supply of creative ideas and a good mood.
