Practical questions
A few things to check before you set off.
Does every player need a phone?
Phone requirements depend on the hunt format. The public hunt page or booking confirms whether each player needs the app. Anyone playing on a phone should bring it charged and have mobile data available.
What happens if the weather is bad?
This is the UK, so there’s always a chance the weather might decide to join your adventure too. A bit of wind? A splash of rain? Sometimes that just makes the hunt even more memorable. Grab a coat, embrace the elements and carry on exploring. But if the weather turns properly grim, don’t worry. Your hunt does not expire once you start it. You can stop at any point, head somewhere warm, and come back to finish your adventure when the weather improves. So whether you’re hunting in sunshine, drizzle or full-on British sideways rain, the choice is yours. The city will still be there when you’re ready. Scheduled group bookings follow the arrangements in your booking confirmation.
How accessible are the hunts?
Public places can change because of roadworks, closures, or other local conditions. Share access requirements before booking so the proposed route and any known constraints can be checked and discussed.
