How to run a race challenge

Race checkpoints being set up in Goosechase Studio

Map your checkpoints

Make each stop a GPS check-in, then add the challenge there: a photo, a video or a question to answer.

Unlock the next leg

Each finished checkpoint unlocks the next, so teams run the route in order. Add bonus challenges for extra points.

What to know before teams hit the start line.

What's an Amazing Race-style game?

An Amazing Race-style game sends teams along a route of checkpoints. At each stop they complete a challenge, then get the clue to the next one. The first team to finish every leg wins.

Pick 6-10 stops, give each one a challenge and a clue to the next, and set a time limit. Walk the route once, plan a finish line with a prize, and keep a hint ready for every leg.

Yes. Swap GPS check-ins for photo and question challenges, and teams can race through an office, a school or a video call.
