National Treasure Hunt

December 26, 2022

Do you have more questions about Spymaker National Treasure Hunt?

 Our team has been working hard to create an amazing treasure hunt for you and your group. In reviewing feedback from past years we’ve decided to change the format slightly to give each group an even better experience! Please take a moment to review the highlights below:

This year Spymaker is bringing you a National Treasure type treasure hunt right here in Michigan! Gather your historian, codebreaker, researcher, or your friends and family for a fun filled adventure to solve the mystery. If you are the first to crack all the codes, you’ll be led to a 5 oz silver treasure and a lifetime of bragging rights! Our treasure hunt would be best defined as a wild mix of escape room, scavenger hunt, & teamwork. Bring your family and friends on the best adventure of the year and you’ll find that the true prize is the interaction and fun you have along the way!

We are committed to bringing you the best experience possible, if you believe that our new format will not work for your needs, please reach out to us so we can make it right.

Thank you, 
Spymaker Team

General Information & Rules:

When is the National Treasure Hunt

This event takes place on December 26th, 2022 @10am. The end of the event simply depends on how long it takes for teams to solve the puzzles and find the treasure..

What Happens at 10am?

Play will start at 10a on December 26th, when we send out a message that your group will need to work together to decode. This initial message leads to our Spymaker team where you will choose your box. If you have not solved this initial location by noon, we will provide the location where to find the Spymaker Staff and obtain your box. This ensures that if you get “stuck” with the initial decoding, you still will have a chance to move forward.

What do you mean "NEW FORMAT"?

Our treasure hunt would be best defined as a wild mix of escape room, scavenger hunt, & teamwork.  You will obtain PHYSICAL box that will need to be decoded. 

How many can be in my group?

Groups are limited to 5 people per booking.  If you have more than 5, simply have 1 booking for every 5 players.

Are there multiple location?

Kinda. In past hunts you would receive your clues via Facebook, figure out the location and then provide us with the answers to receive the next clue. 

However, this year, you and your group will find us from the riddle to obtain your box. Inside your box are items that you and your group will need decode to find the treasures location.  

Once you find the location, the searching begins.  

The first group to find the treasure (GPS locator) will be the winner. 

What do you mean by 3 locations?

Based on the number of entires, There will be up to 3 different versions of the treasure hunt, which end in 3 identically valued treasures, in 3 separate locations. This ensures a better playing experience for everyone as there will be less chance of large groups converging on one another and giving away clues or locations.

 

You and your group will get 1 box to 1  locations.

 

*Spymaker reserves the right to condense the locations based on entries.  In the event that happens, prize pot will be divided equally between remaining location(s).

Are there any clues?

No, none at all. Once the first riddle goes out there will be no communication, with the exception to inform everyone that a treasure has been found.

How will communication be sent?

We will be utilizing email as our primary message sending medium, and our back up will be txt messages. We will not longer be using Facebook. It is your responsibility to add us as a safe sender and check your spam folder to make sure that nothing goes astray! All email headers will contain the phrase SPYMAKER NATIONAL TREASURE HUNT.

How do we decode the clues?

You can use the internet, our website, this page, also your wits and research skills.  There are probably a few other ways to solve the treasure. But you get the point!  Good luck.

Where is the Treasure(s) Located?

GOTCHA!  Did you think we would tell you?  Nope our lips are sealed….. However, a quick review of this page will give you some general information.
