A Shorter, Cost-Effective Amazing Race Alternative
Should you choose to accept this Quest, your mission will be to accrue as many points as possible across 90 minutes of games and challenges that will get you out and about in the city.
But more than just completing challenges, City Quest is a game of strategy. Our Host sets teams off at the start to choose whichever challenge they want to complete, at any time, to gain as many points as they can.
A checkpoint in the middle brings everyone together at the same time before being sent off again with new challenges.
Here’s the catch – no challenge is mandatory, and the scoring varies. Your team’s scavenger hunt success hinges on devising the smartest race strategy!
Designed to get you out and exploring your city, prepare to be tested in weird, wacky and wonderful ways. Only one team will be crowned the City Quest champions, so team collaboration is going to be key to claiming the glory.
Frequently Asked Questions
From physical tasks to creative challenges and cryptic brain teasers, the goal is to strategise and play to the skillsets within your team. Regardless of whether you excel at puzzles, are an absolute boss at useless trivia, or a complete music and movies superfan, City Quest has something for everyone.
Although some challenge locations are near the start/finish area, other challenges may require some expert navigation and clue solving so it’s a real game of strategy rather than a sprint between challenge locations.
Teams will tackle challenges that include:
- Snap Happy
- Scrambled Heads
- Movie Buff
- Songbird
- Foreign Trade
We estimate that teams will walk approx. 2kms to complete City Quest.
City Quest is a fun team amazing race, but also puts a focus on time management and delegation of roles. In our daily work lives, tasks can become daunting if not organised and prioritised. In City Quest, teams can practice this vital skill in a risk-free, enjoyable team-building exercise.
They’re presented with a multitude of tasks in a limited time, encouraging self-assessment and the creation of a winning strategy to maximize points.
But let’s be real. City Quest is about getting people to laugh and connect with each other to help strengthen bonds and create an amazing workplace culture.
While fun and connection is our number one objective for City Quest, there are also some other outcomes:
- Team Building: Build trust and strengthen relationships with a healthy dose of friendly competition).
- Improved Morale: A team that laughs together, works better together.
- Inclusion and Energy: Designed so everyone can participate, regardless of age, ability, or how much they “hate team building.”
Quite simply, City Quest is 90mins of fun. Whether you’re a small team of 5-6 people or a large conference group of 600 people. It just works. Problem-solving, physical challenges, and creativity are on the agenda here.
