Come to us with an idea
Tell us who you want to bring together, the places you love, and what you want people to discover. A rough idea is all you need to start.
Your idea. Your community. An adventure we build for you.
Come to us with an idea and we’ll help create an adventure for your community. We build your custom Find the Idol game around your people, places, and stories, and help you make it your own.
Game creation starts at $499, including one month of hosting and 10 custom digital idols.
We bring your game idea to life.
From a neighborhood outing to a campus tradition, we work with you to create an experience that fits your audience, goals, and timing.
We build an adventure that feels like yours
We help shape the theme, story, stops, and collectible idols, then build your game. Choose a Collection Game, Mystery Hunt, or Discovery Trail to suit your community.
Invite your community to play
We set up and host the game, help prepare the launch, and support it while it runs. Players explore on their phones, discover your places, and save their finds. No app download needed.

Explore these starting points to see the value a game can bring. Have something different in mind? We’d love to help you shape it.
Help students find the places on campus they keep walking past. A game could kick off orientation week, add fun to a campus event, or unfold over a whole semester.
Give guests a fun activity around your property or neighborhood. Turn the places you already love recommending into a game they can play during their stay.
Connect local businesses, farmers markets, events, and favorite local spots in one game. It gives residents and visitors a fun reason to see more of your community.
Get residents exploring past their usual block. A downtown game turns "shop local" into something people can actually go out and do.
Give visitors an afternoon they will remember. A game can tie your best local places and stories into one easy adventure.
Turn your travel guides, food picks, and local stories into a game your followers can go play. We help shape the idea and build it for you.
Help new residents get to know their neighborhood. A welcome game can lead them to parks, public spaces, and friendly local businesses.
Give coworkers a shared adventure with places to find and idols to collect. A game can turn any retreat or offsite into something people talk about afterward.
Add a game to your festival, conference, or street fair. Guests collect idols between sessions, shows, and conversations, and see more of your event along the way.
Help diners find participating restaurants with a collection game. Players discover new places to eat and find reasons to come back hungry.
Give customers a reason to visit more than their usual location. A collection game can show off what makes each of your locations special.
Create it once. Make it a tradition.
Start with an adventure built for your community, then keep the same game running for multiple months or bring it back once a year.
