Stop Personalization

Make every stop personal.

Upload plain photos of real objects โ€” a chair, your front door, a board game, the couch โ€” type a name for each, and Gemini ("nano banana") uses them to generate themed clue art and a personalized map for your hunt.

1

Snap a photo of a real object โ€” chair, couch, desk, board game, your house.

Any plain photo works. Type a name so Gemini (โ€œnano bananaโ€) knows what itโ€™s looking at.

Gemini generates themed clue art for every stop โ€” numbered to match your inputs.

Each stop gets its own illustrated landmark in the huntโ€™s style โ€” Shipโ€™s Wheel, Palm Grove, Skull Rock, Sunken Chest โ€” so players see a coherent world as they explore.

How It Works

From idea to adventure in minutes

1

Pick a theme & drop your stops

Choose Pirate, Jungle, Easter, Birthday or Holiday. Drop 4โ€“6 stops on the map, write a clue for each. About 5 minutes for a first-timer.

2

Publish & share one link

Hit publish and get a player link. Text it to parents, email it to a class, or print QR-coded clue cards โ€” 30 seconds.

3

Players explore, you track live

Players follow clues on their phone with GPS or QR check-ins. You watch the live leaderboard โ€” who is where, how long they took, who finished first.

Real stories

Three hosts. Three hunts. One afternoon each.

Concrete examples of how hosts actually ran Questly โ€” the theme they picked, the stops they dropped on the map, and how long it took from idea to finish line.
