Urban exploration often misses the mark on engagement and interactivity, especially for tourists seeking unique experiences beyond typical guided tours. Traditional methods fail to offer the immersive and interactive adventure that modern explorers crave. myCityHunt identified the need for a platform that combines the thrill of scavenger hunts with the educational value of guided tours, making city exploration fun and memorable.
myCityHunt aimed to create a digital platform that offers interactive scavenger hunts in cities across the globe. The primary goal was to provide users with an engaging and educational way to explore urban landscapes, uncover hidden gems, and solve challenging riddles at various landmarks. The platform needed to be robust, user-friendly, and capable of handling real-time interactions and tracking.
