Pathfinder GPS Adventure
Follow the arrow, unlock GPS challenges and race your way up the leaderboard.
About
Pathfinder GPS Adventure turns any area into an exciting, interactive race. Loaded onto tablets, the game app features a unique direction arrow that guides teams to each of their locations.
Once a team arrives, a GPS-triggered challenge appears in the form of questions, clues and photo tasks that the team works together to complete. Updates, feedback and scores are tracked in real time as teams make their way around the course.
Back at base, every team can be followed, and bonus missions can be released at key points in the adventure. The platform suits all abilities and terrains, from busy city streets and rough trails to forests and waterfronts.
The app can handle any number of teams, creating equal distances and routes for each one. This avoids crowding at sensitive spots and keeps players away from potentially unsafe areas.
Learning outcomes
Pathfinder GPS Adventure is known for improving communication within teams, because it encourages open discussion at every stop. Better relationships on the course lead to better quality work back in the office.
It motivates people by creating a level playing field where everyone is free to share ideas and opinions, and it pushes teams to take on new challenges quickly.
Taking teams out of their normal environment encourages creative thinking, and working with people they rarely work with helps break down barriers and build trust between colleagues.
The challenges also build problem-solving skills. Teams learn that a failed attempt can lead to success when they rethink their approach, adapt their strategy and improve their process as they go. Finishing the course together, comparing photos and replaying the best moments gives teams a shared story, a renewed sense of trust and plenty of fresh energy to bring back to work.
