Merry & Bright Office Hunt

Dana’s hunt for the office holiday party: about 20 missions, each with its emoji, some from the draft and some Dana wrote.

  1. Recreate an awkward family holiday card with two coworkers Photo · 5 pts
  2. Recreate this photo from last year’s party, same spots, same sweaters Photo · 10 pts Added by Dana Reference photo
  3. Team photo at Luigi’s, where we had our first team lunch Photo · 10 pts Added by Dana Luigi’s Trattoria
  4. Film a five-second toast to the team’s best moment this year Video · 10 pts

The host can change, remove or add to every mission in the app, any time before or during the hunt.

How a hunt plays out

Start from a draft of about 20 missions for your occasion and make them yours. Then your group plays, in the same room or in different cities, and every photo lands in one place. How to make one, step by step

  1. Every photo lands in the feed

    Players post as they finish missions, and the whole group sees each one arrive, whether they’re in the same room or across town.

  2. Like it, comment, cheer it on

    Hearts and comments fly while the hunt is on. The host can post announcements too, like a bonus round at 3.

  3. Watch the leaderboard move

    Missions are worth up to 20 points each. Play to win, or switch to co-op and count it together.

  4. Keep the gallery

    When the hunt ends, every photo and video stays in the gallery with its likes and comments, for everyone who played.

Questions hosts ask

Something else? Email hello@scavos.com.

Can I add players mid-hunt?

Yes. Add a Player Pack in the app any time, even while the hunt is on, so you only buy what your group needs. A pack belongs to the hunt you add it to. Past your free 2, anyone else who joins is told the hunt is full until you add players. Big group? Add them before you share the invite.

Can I write my own missions?

Yes. Add your own, and change or remove any of the 20 or so suggestions: the words, the emoji, the points, photo or video, a quiz or a riddle, a reference photo or a place to go. Then set the date.

Do players need the app?

Yes, the free Scavos app. Your link or QR code takes players straight to it, they sign in with Apple or Google in one tap, and players never pay.

Can I share the invite before I open it as host?

Yes, but open it as host today. Until you do, only the first 3 people who join get a place. Anyone who joins with the link, invite code or QR code joins as a player; your private host code is what makes you the host.

Can people play from different places?

Yes. Players can be in the same room or in different cities; everyone’s photos land in the same feed.

What happens to the photos afterward?

They stay in the hunt’s gallery in the app with every like and comment, and they can be exported afterward.
