Montgomery Scavenger Hunt: Interactive Live Host Game

Solve clues and chase points while a live host cheers you on from your phone

A two-hour interactive scavenger hunt in Montgomery where you and your team solve creative clues, complete wacky challenges, and visit curated locations around town guided by a live remote host via text and phone. You'll walk or drive to checkpoints, text photos of your progress, interact with locals to crack puzzles, and compete on an international leaderboard regardless of your score. The hunt mixes indoors and outdoors, welcomes families and dogs, and lets you extend play for free if you want more.

The experience

You start at a scenic local spot and receive your digital quest directly from your live, interactive remote host. From there, you're on your own to move through Montgomery at whatever pace works for your group: walking or driving to checkpoints as you solve clues and accept challenges designed to push you outside your comfort zone. The host stays connected via text and phone, cheering you on, answering questions, and helping you work through stuck moments. You'll text photos to document each completed challenge, and the host uses those to track your progress and keep the energy up.

The hunt alternates between indoor and outdoor locations, mixing history, art, and culture with oddities and surprises around every turn. You might interact with locals to unlock clues, interpret creative prompts, or tackle bonus challenges scattered throughout the game. Because it's designed for both families and dogs, the route stays accessible without sacrificing the fun or the weirdness. Nothing about it feels like a traditional tour. It's part detective hunt, part creative challenge, part social experiment, and entirely your own to shape as you go.

You'll compete on the international leaderboard even if no other teams are hunting in Montgomery that day, so there's always a ranking to chase. If two hours isn't enough, you can extend the hunt for free. You'll need at least one fully charged smartphone with GPS and the ability to send texts and photos: a domestic phone number or WhatsApp account is required so the host can reach you during the game.
