Turn Atlantic City into a playground: an app-driven, two-hour scavenger hunt that takes teams from the boardwalk into downtown, with photo challenges, live hints, and local stories around every corner.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off the boardwalk with your phone buzzing and a riddle on the screen — the hunt begins. Salt and diesel hang in the air while overhead gulls circle the piers; your route moves inland from the oceanfront into a patchwork of casinos, murals, and historic streets. The app pushes clues, the remote host nudges when you stall, and the city itself becomes a course of photo ops and playful dares.
