About
Embark on "Haumea's Quest," a captivating team-building scavenger hunt that marries the thrill of discovery with the enchantment of Hawaiian mythology. In the sun-drenched beauty of Waikiki, teams are beckoned to unravel the island's secrets, guided by puzzles and clues interwoven with the lore of the crafty Menehune. Through challenges that demand wit, agility, and cooperative strategy, each group will delve into tasks that foster unity and celebrate the Aloha spirit.
Designed for groups of four or five, this game invites corporate teams (as well as sports teams, church groups, bridal parties, etc.) to connect and collaborate amidst the backdrop of Waikiki's picturesque landscapes. Over the course of an hour and a half of action-packed fun, participants will encounter 50+ activities—ranging from environmental stewardship to historical exploration—each meticulously designed to strengthen bonds and create lasting memories in one of the world's most stunning settings.
There are tasks that are information related (find a specific statue and answer a question from it), photo related (find objects or things like a dog or a orange towel and get a photo of it), and video related (go to a certain place and take a video of your group engaged in a task).
The video tasks are the ones that are far and away the most fun (and the majority of tasks in this game). Perhaps you need to have your group make up a secret handshake, or pretend to be weather reporters giving an overview of the current weather with your teammates "fighting" the winds in the background, or playing a game of slow-motion tag. These tasks put your teammates at the forefront of the action ... you all become the stars of the show ... and allow you to creatively work together to do the puzzles, hopefully earning bonus points for your efforts.
