How to play

Start on the couch.
Make it a town adventure.

  1. Heart gifts. Build your walk.

    Play from your couch. Hearts plan your route; visits earn points.

  2. Scan. Stamp. Next stop.

    Visit an open shop, scan its hunt QR and tap Stamp this stop. Photos are optional.

  3. Climb the leaderboard.

    One verified stamp qualifies you. Most points wins the most valuable prize.

Your passport, points and gift claims

Your passport is your scorecard. We email its code and a link back to your game. Hearts don't earn points or reserve gifts. Winners claim with their passport code; 21+ gifts require photo ID.

Photo booths bykeepbooth

Make a memory.
Keep exploring.

Take a photo at a hunt stop, or step into a booth at places like Glacier on Linden and The Whisk(e)y. Dress up and give your costume its moment.

Vote for the best costume — top 3 win +100 / +60 / +30 hunt points. Vote for the best costume →

Look for the booth, QR and gift icons on our map. Installed booths add a first-check-in bonus; other participating shops have QR photo stops.

How the game works

The costume, the prizes,
and the points.

Costume prizes. People judge creativity, craft and Halloween spirit. Hunt points never choose the costume winner.

The Halloween round. From Saturday, October 31 at 12:00 AM, every stop opens for one more check-in, and those check-ins count 10× the points. Your earlier points stay in your total.

Points, prizes and a paper backup

Visit points. Join the hunt before checking in. Scan the stop's QR and follow its stamp or photo instructions. Liking a place or planning a route earns no points.

Costume points. An approved costume entry earns 5 points, once per person per round (10× in the Halloween round). Waiting entries show as pending until they are approved.

Before you go. Check the shop's hours and age policy. Children play with a guardian. Print your route for a paper backup; a participating business can stamp it for the organizer to record.

The costume contest is not sponsored or administered by Meta.
