The Game
Santa has been kidnapped and we have a holly jolly list of likely suspects. You’ll recognize some of the most noteworthy holiday villains from Hans Gruber to Harry & Marv at the top of the list. Breaking out into case squads, teams must race against the clock to work through a series of holiday-themed riddles, puzzles, and multimedia challenges; unlocking the information needed to try and save Santa before it’s too late!
On game day our MC will take teams through the background story, break down the rules, and send them into teams to crack the case using the Social Scavenger web software. With only 45 minutes teams will have to decide when to use hints to advance them in the game. The one catch...hints cost valuable points needed to win the game. Beyond puzzles, you’ll be dealing with trivia and media challenges (yes - surprise holiday-themed photos and videos) will make for a great wrap-up.
All players will be brought back to our main room where you’ll discover the fun isn’t over yet. As part of an epic wrap-up, we’ll have voting on bonus rounds, a walkthrough of your custom challenges, a ‘best of media’ reel, and of course, the big reveal to find out who won...and who kidnapped Santa (if any of your group figured it out that is)!
In this highly competitive experience, you’ll break out into case squads and work through a series of riddles, puzzles, and multimedia challenges.
To win, you’ll need to think on your feet and work as a team, solving as many challenges as possible in the given time frame. You’re on the clock, so you’ll have to hurry!

FAQs
How long is the event?
The full event runs for 90 minutes. Part of that is together (start and end) and the rest is game time in teams.
Should I play the 60 or 90 minute version?
You'll have a great time no matter what but nobody (so far) who's played the 90 minutes has said "we wish we had less time". Ask your game producer what will work best.
How much work is it for me (the one booking this)?
Very little. Your game producer will make everything easy and breezy.
Can the event organizers play?
100% you can play! Our hosts and facilitators take care of everything on game day so you are free to join the game as a player and have just as much fun as the team.
What are media challenges?
Our origins are in photo and video based challenge games so we’ve found some really fun ways to bring ‘media’ into the game. Media challenges are presented back to the group as a great way to experience what other teams did.
What about prizes?
95% of teams do not give away anything other than bragging rights! This game can get competitive so winning will be prize enough.
If you really want to give away prizes talk to your game producer and we’ll work it into the script and award show.
