Explorum: City Treasure Hunts
Follow the compass to the clue
Only for iPhone
Free · In-App Purchases
Find a tour nearby and let the compass lead you from stop to stop. Answer questions, collect clues and crack the final riddle.
Explorum turns the city into a treasure hunt. Pick a tour nearby and let the compass guide you from stop to stop.
At every stop, part of the story is waiting: a picture, a video or a text about the place, and a question to answer. Answer correctly and you get a clue. At the end, the clues come together in a riddle you can only crack if you have been all the way round.
How it works
• See tours nearby on the map or in the list, with duration, number of stops and distance.
• The compass and the map point the way to the next stop, so you don't need to know the route.
• Collect clues along the way and crack the riddle at the end.
• See your result when the tour is over.
Many tours are free. Others cost a one-off price, shown on the tour before you start. There is no subscription.
Create your own tours
Are you a museum, a council, a guide or a club? In Explorum Studio at studio.explorum.dk you create your own treasure hunts with text, pictures, video and questions, and you set the price yourself. There are no fixed monthly costs.
Mind the traffic and keep an eye on your surroundings while you walk.
