Montgomery: City Scavenger Hunt Game with Remote Host

Summary

Montgomery’s playful side comes alive with every clue you solve

You’ll dive into Montgomery’s quirks with a digital scavenger hunt game—solving creative challenges, texting photos to your live remote host, chatting with locals for clues, and maybe getting caught up in friendly competition. Every moment feels spontaneous and real, leaving you with memories that stick around longer than your score.

What’s the experience like?

“You don’t need to know the answers—just be curious,” our host texted as we stood by the fountain near Court Square. I grinned at my friend, who was already squinting at the first clue on her phone. It was humid, but not in a bad way—just enough to make the pavement smell like summer after rain. The city felt different when you’re hunting for odd details instead of just walking through it. Our remote guide (her name was Sam, I think) kept sending these little nudges and jokes that made us laugh out loud more than once. At one point, she asked us to find something “older than your grandma” and send a photo—I’m still not sure if my attempt counted, but she gave us points anyway.

The best part? You end up talking to people you’d never meet otherwise. We stopped an older man outside a bookstore to ask about a mural we couldn’t quite place; he told us stories about growing up here and pointed out where Hank Williams used to play. There was this moment in an old alley where the air smelled faintly of fried chicken from somewhere nearby, and I realized how much more there is to Montgomery than you notice from a car window. The scavenger hunt game had us zig-zagging between indoor spots (thankful for AC) and sunlit corners where everything looked extra bright.

I got embarrassingly competitive when Sam mentioned there was a leaderboard—my friend rolled her eyes but played along. We texted silly photos back and forth, sometimes pausing too long at each stop because we got distracted by random stuff (like a dog in sunglasses). The whole thing felt less like a tour and more like being part of some inside joke running through the city. When it ended, I kind of wanted to keep going just to see what else we’d find or who else we might meet.
