The Quest game (not a computer game)
The Quest game (not a computer game)
Today I want to tell you about some intellectual adventures game. The game is very popular in my country last a few years. They who saw "Fort Boyard" TV program or played in computer quest understand me easy.
I tried to find wikipedia article about the game, but i found it just in russian language (If I am wrong share the link). In my country I found much firms service entertainment like CRS in "The Game"1997 film. Fore example (http://en.cx/agency/, http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/DozoR, http://quest.ua/)
Quest - is intellectual-adventure reality game. The game is played in city scope or around city. There are many peculiarities at different cities. I describe general sense.
The purpose is to find all keys and riddle all puzzles like in computer game. All players join some a team (4-6 players each) . Every player have to have some equipment : small lamp, city map, mobile phone, some cash, personal car(one for each team) some else.
They take a assignment at the start and go to find first key. When they have done it they receive whereabouts next key. The whereabouts is not clear coordinate. It just puzzles or prompting. All key are tossed in different spots of town. It may be deserted building , attic, tree in the park, bottom of pond, post box at tenth floor in house, cellar or something else. The first team who found all keys win.
Usually they play in the game at the weekend or a night before weekend. They play at the night to intensify adventure feeling. Usually the game finished after 6-20 hours (when all keys is found).
I never take part in the game. But it is very popular at youth. My colleague have vacation soon (01.05.2013). He will go to south of country to play the game and then take a rest . But it allowed just to adult (18+ ) people.

I tried to find a wikipedia article about the game, but i only found it in russian language (If I am wrong, share the link).

Quest - is intellectual-adventure reality game. The game is played in city scope or around the city. There are many peculiarities in different cities. I'll give a general description.
The object is to find all the keys and solve all the puzzles like in a computer game. All players join some a team (4-6 players each) . Every player has to have certain objects : a small lamp, a city map, a mobile phone, some cash, a personal car (one for each team) among other things.
They receive an assignment at the start and go to find the first key. Once they have done that, they are given the whereabouts of the next key. The whereabouts are not clear coordinates. It just puzzles or prompting.[???] All the keys are scattered around different spots in the town. It may be a deserted building , an attic, a tree in the park, the bottom of a pond, apost box on the tenth floor of a building, a cellar or somewhere else. The first team who finds all the keys wins.
Usually they play in the game on weekends or Friday nights. They play at the night to intensify the feeling of adventure. Usually the game takes about 6-20 hours (when all the keys are found).
I never take part in the game. But it is very popular with young people. My colleague will have vacation soon (01.05.2013). He's going to the south of the country to play the game and then take a break. But it is only for adults, 18+.
