What's new?

For the perfect team building or family activity, we have a lot in store! Nearly 300 tasks logged in Cologne, Munich, and Düsseldorf. Each city is developed uniquely, which means:

• 6000 photos, videos, and audio fragments (300 GB)
• 225 km walked to discover every corner of the city
• a strict final selection of 20 tasks per city, aiming for variety, creativity, fun facts, beautiful spots, and a manageable walking distance for young and old.

All that remains is for us to translate the selected tasks, write out the fun facts, conduct test sessions, and develop the youth versions. Available soon!

Cologne is next in line for the Urban Hunt launch in Germany.

The leaderboard is now only released after 15 minutes, so all teams can gather together first. Then, every 10 seconds a team is revealed for extra excitement!

In the past few months, we recruited several dozen new student workers for guiding team-building activities.

What a GPS vechicle mount can be good for! We are working on the translations of the explanatory video of the game.

Today, we gathered all the media for the development of our first Walloon city, Namur.

With artificial intelligence 🤖, we bring images to life so that Urban Hunt becomes an even more unique experience.

Our interface has been updated. It has been simplified and the live scoreboard has been prominently placed. This makes Urban Hunt even more interactive! ⚔️

This year, several hundred group photos have once again been provided to the players!

With a presentation for the press and politicians, Urban Hunt was launched today in Diksmuide.

Coming soon to various tourist offices.

Info and reservations

Today, Winter has entered into action for the first time. It is on the hunt for puzzles in the city of Guldensporen.

Our illustrator Alma is currently making the final adjustments to the drawings of Urban Hunt Bruges.

After Tim and Amber, Max has also started working on Urban Hunt Mechelen. His first day was promising!

In March 2022, our working students completed 195 hours of work, spread across 5 cities (Leuven, Antwerp, Kortrijk, Mechelen, and Antwerp). They recorded a total of 351 missions. About 1 in 5 of these missions ultimately ends up in the game.

You will soon be able to find our circular flyers at the Ypres tourist office.

An English version is available in each city. Last month, our SMS service sent messages to players from 17 different countries.

In addition to Alma and Ines, Mathijs is also on the lookout for exciting missions in the city center of Leuven starting this week. His first days of work have already been promising!

Currently, images are still being collected for Urban Hunt Bruges. A drone allows us to create unique images that further enhance the players' experience.

We have finished gathering about thirty original missions. We are now finalizing all the media (videos, photos, audio, puzzles, texts,...).

Next, we will translate and launch!

In addition to Tim, Stijn, and Nathan, Aiko is now working on the development of Urban Hunt in Antwerp.

Each city is developed by different students. This way, the missions are varied. Each student indeed looks at the city in a unique way.

It sometimes happened that a team accidentally started the game while not everyone was ready. From now on, the app will ask for confirmation when the last team clicks on "Ready", the moment the countdown begins.

Student Joline has started developing an Urban Hunt version for Kortrijk.

You can now see your completed and failed missions at a glance on the map. Previously, you had to click on each mission individually.

From now on, each player will automatically receive an SMS at the end of the game. This will direct them to a page full of fascinating statistics about the game played.

A live example can be viewed here.

Our student workers are hard at work on 3 new cities. Good for about 60 new missions filled with photo, video, and audio material.

The focus of our missions is on: creativity, solvability, and the historical context of the city.

To be able to respond quickly, we have integrated a feedback module into our application that allows players to report missions. This way, we can keep our missions in perfect condition for everyone.

Sometimes, a mission is:

• more accessible due to construction work, a large event in the square, ...
• modified (a replaced information sign)
• incorrect due to an error on our part 😇 (a wrong answer option was recorded as "correct" in the system)
• too vague
