Wacky Walks is a royalty themed scavenger hunt. It is similar to a board game, in which the power, or control, of the game shifts from one player to another and instead of a board, you’ll be exploring the streets of your city with your smartphone to complete the game.
The objective of the game is to have fun, find some cool places in Branson, and enjoy the company of whoever you are playing with. Wacky Walks will start out by designating who will be the first King or Queen. The Royal Highness will then direct the other players to locate items and participate in challenges throughout the kingdom (Branson). You’ll use our scavenger hunt app to prove you’ve found correct items and completed the challenges correctly. MATCH will have its own private app so all posts will be only available to those that are playing from MATCH’s group. We want to get everyone involved and have some fun and learn new things about Branson.
Wacky Walks is done completely on foot and usually takes about two hours to complete. But don’t worry, you won’t be alone. You’ll have a remote/virtual guide that will be available in case you get stuck.
Tickets:
$8.60/person
Tickets must be bought through MATCH.
