Scavenger hunt for the JGA? We say yes!
Stag parties (JGA) should primarily be fun and bring the members of the bride or groom team even closer together. There’s nothing better to kick things off than a fun game that strengthens the sense of community. A game that entertains everyone and doesn’t embarrass or embarrass anyone. There is hardly anything better suited to this objective than a fun scavenger hunt that strengthens team spirit, is exciting and sometimes also educational! <\/p>

Why a scavenger hunt for the JGA?<\/h2>

Many JGAs often involve an excessive amount of alcohol and lots of embarrassing games. But many no longer want it that way. Many brides and grooms are usually uncomfortable and unimaginative with classic drinking games played amidst the cheering of their friends. A scavenger hunt or an outdoor escape game, on the other hand, is always met with enthusiasm and is particularly interesting if it takes place in an environment that none of the participants know exactly – for example, in another city. This is a fun way to get to know interesting places and stories and provides plenty of topics for conversation later in the evening. <\/strong><\/p>

What is an outdoor escape game?<\/h2>

The classic scavenger hunt has also moved with the times, has been pimped up considerably and is now celebrating its renaissance under the name outdoor escape game<\/a>. Such an outdoor game is therefore nothing more than a modern form of scavenger hunt, which usually also makes use of all available electronic aids such as smartphones, tablets, GPS, augmented reality, etc. <\/p>

What you can expect from an outdoor escape game at the JGA<\/h2>

The game begins with you having to discover the puzzles for yourself – they may be right in front of you or cleverly hidden. So you have to sharpen all your senses and follow every little clue. The puzzles you have to solve are mostly logic puzzles, which in turn are hidden in picture puzzles or other coded messages. Ultimately, the aim is to successfully complete a specific mission – e.g. find a treasure, solve a criminal case or save the world. In other words, the tasks, puzzles and brain teasers are similar to those in a classic escape room<\/a>. <\/p>

Why outdoor escape games are perfect for the JGA<\/h2>

Combination of well-known escape room puzzle fun and sightseeing<\/h3>

However, scavenger hunts and outdoor escape games are not only a hit for birthdays, company parties, JGAs etc. – they are now also outstripping classic sightseeing tours. The fun and adventure of well-known escape room puzzles<\/a> combined with interesting historical stories are much more memorable than the knowledge imparted by more or less original tour guides. <\/p>

So a JGA is not only fun, but you also learn a lot of interesting things and get to know a new city in a playful way.<\/p>

Teamwork is required<\/h3>

Outdoor escape games<\/a> are perfect icebreakers for motley groups. At a stag party, not all participants usually know each other from the outset, as the different groups of friends from early youth, school, university, work, etc. often meet for the first time. A joint task immediately creates a sense of togetherness – and the puzzles can actually be solved most quickly by as many different characters as possible. The precise and quiet observer is just as much in demand as the extrovert bubbling over with ideas and constantly putting forward new interpretations for discussion. <\/p>

Perfect for large groups<\/h3>

A stag party like this sometimes turns into a mega event and the question inevitably arises as to how many friends you can actually invite to an outdoor escape game. Don’t worry – as the game takes place outdoors, you are not limited in terms of space (also important if the coronavirus is still an issue at your wedding!) and the games are designed so that they can be played by 5 people as well as 50 or more. <\/p>

Full flexibility<\/h3>

With such a scavenger hunt at the JGA, you are flexible in terms of time and can set the start time for your escape game yourself. You can also decide whether you want to play the game together as a group or split into two teams against each other in battle mode. <\/p>

Planning your own scavenger hunt for the JGA vs. booking it yourself – advantages and disadvantages<\/h2>

However, you also have the option of creating an outdoor escape game<\/a> yourself. Of course, this involves a lot of work and is therefore quite time-consuming. In addition to a good deal of creativity, you need precise local knowledge for a do-it-yourself outdoor game, which can be quite a hurdle in an unknown city. But if you plan it yourself, you don’t have to rely on third parties, you can personalize the game particularly precisely and save money – but certainly not nerves. <\/p>

If you book the game with a professional provider, on the other hand, you are guaranteed to solve highly ingeniously designed and extremely creative puzzles that locals have worked out for you and optimized time and time again. The professionals will also provide you with the latest technology and the added value of edutainment as you get to know a new environment. <\/p>

A scavenger hunt for the next JGA!<\/h2>

To summarize, there are few things as suitable for a successful stag party as an outdoor escape game.

Warum eine Outdoor Schnitzeljagd f\u00fcr JGAs perfekt ist<\/h3>

Jeder Trauzeuge kennt diese logistische und soziale Herausforderung: Bei einem JGA treffen oft die unterschiedlichsten Freundeskreise der letzten 20 Jahre aufeinander. Die Schulfreunde, die Kumpels aus dem Studium, die Arbeitskollegen und die Familie. Beim ersten Treffen am Hamburger Hauptbahnhof herrscht da oft noch h\u00f6fliche Zur\u00fcckhaltung.<\/p>

Unser Outdoor Escape Game ist der perfekte Icebreaker<\/b>:<\/p>
