GeoQuestr gets people off the sofa and out the door. Questions, stories and challenges at real places make learning something new fun — while people move and find places they've never been.
We started GeoQuestr because we believe people learn best when they're having fun — and when they're standing right there. When knowledge becomes a game, people want to walk one more block, answer one more question and discover a little more.
Lifelong learning has always been about curiosity — wanting to know more about the place you live, the history behind the buildings and the nature around the corner. Signs, brochures and guided tours have long carried that knowledge, and they still play an important role. But today curiosity competes with screens, and more and more people sit still. Younger audiences in particular need more ways in.
We built GeoQuestr as a complement. By mixing play, movement and learning, we get people of all ages outside — on foot, at their own pace and ideally together. Every quest becomes a reason to walk a little further, look a little closer and remember what you discovered.
Signs and brochures give visitors facts when they need them, and they have their rightful place. But they wait for someone to stop. To also reach the people who would otherwise walk past, learning sometimes needs to come to them and invite them to take part — not just to read.
With GeoQuestr, streets, parks and trails become a game board, and the stories you already have get a new life. Participants walk from place to place, answer questions, take on challenges and often compete in teams — learning something about every spot they pass. You decide what gets told and where people go.
This is what we believe in — and it shapes everything we build.
Curiosity is sparked on location. The best learning happens when you step outside and find something you didn't know was just around the corner.
Teams, leaderboards and shared challenges bring families, school classes, clubs and colleagues together — and get them talking about what they discovered long afterwards.
Points, clues, hidden treasures and photo challenges turn knowledge into something worth collecting. When it's fun, people stay longer — and remember more.
All it takes is a phone and the urge to get outside. Participants play right in the phone's browser without downloading an app, at their own pace and in several languages.
