How Do Scavenger Hunts Work?
Once a scavenger hunt begins, you will need to click into the “treasures” menu and select the hunt you previously registered for. Selecting the first location will prompt you with a clue. Each clue will describe the name of the next location in the hunt, and you’ll have to use the resources available to you to find out what is the address of that location.
Throughout the hunt, expect to see a variety of different types of clues, including ciphered messages, riddles, and historical references. We highly recommend you have Google handy, alongside a pen or pencil with some paper to help you out. You can also discuss the clues with other Uplanders on Discord or In-Game Chat!
