Treasure Hunt Games
If you are doing a search for treasure hunt games, odds are that you are looking for one of two different things. First, you could be looking for online games with a treasure hunt theme. Or, you could be looking for treasure hunt games that are similar to a real life scavenger hunt. So which treasure hunt game are you looking for?
Treasure Hunt Games Online
There are a lot of different treasure hunting games online, but I have yet to find a specific website that is dedicated to that particular theme. There are a wide variety of different treasure hunting games that I have found. Many of them seem to be a type of game similar to Bejeweled. There are also puzzle games, I-Spy games, and some really off the wall games, like finding pineapple flavored Lifesavers.
In addition to there be a wide variety of games, there is also a wide quality in the games. Some of them are pretty well thought out, designed, and built. Others are not so well done.
Most of these games require a common web browser like Internet Explorer or Firefox. They also require a software that plays the game, such as Adobe Shockwave Player. I don’t recommend installing the game if it requires a browser add-on, but that is up to you.
- Treasure Hunt – A Bejeweled type game
- Treasure Hunt – Combine things to move through levels
- Treasure Hunt – Another Bejeweled type game
- Pineapple Treasure Hunt – 2d scrolling game hunting for candy
- Hide & Secret – An I-Spy game finding hidden items
- Treasure Hunt – 2d game similar to Mega Man
Treasure Hunt Games – Scavenger Hunt
There are also treasure hunt games that are similar to real-life scavenger games. These are great for parties and come in a wide variety of different variations. The majority of them start the players off with a clue, which leads them on a search for the next clue, and so on, until the player finds the “treasure” at the end.
There is also a version of the game where you can pit two or more teams of people against each other. These teams have different clues that lead them through a different hunt, but they all end at the same location and treasure. The first team to get to the end wins.
Some of the common recommendations are keeping a list for yourself where all the clues are located. You can also give the players clues that relate to them. If it is a family treasure hunt, then give them clues like, “The next clue is located where dad keeps his favorite pair of shoes.”
Other Treasure Hunt Games
There are other types of treasure hunt games. I’ve seen DVDs on the subject, video games and computer games, card games, board games, and scavenger hunt box sets. When you are searching for these types of games online, you’re going to get a lot of mixed results. I haven’t seen too many websites that specialize in treasure hunt flash games, but there are a few websites that specialize in real life scavenger hunt versions of treasure hunt games. Either way, you will have to do a little searching to find exactly what you want.
