Ancient
Egypt Themed
Treasure Hunt Puzzles
Planning
a treasure hunt can be a little overwhelming...especially if you
are looking to create something beyond the simple rhyming clue
to rhyming clue. With advancements in movies and video games,
everyone's looking for more...more excitement and interaction.
We've designed an Ancient Egypt themed treasure hunt puzzles package
for those that want to up a treasure hunt that's beyond the plain
and overdone but may not have the time energy to put together
a full adventure as described elsewhere on our site.
Think
of our Ancient Egypt Treasure Hunt Puzzles Package as the 'legos'
of treasure hunt creating. Each puzzle can stand alone to be used
in a hunt that you are creating or they can be linked together
in the order of your choice to create a treasure hunt unique to
your own needs and imagination. Each puzzle is to be used at a
different location in your treasure hunt (different rooms of the
hous if your hunt is set up within your home, different stops
if planned throughout a city, etc.) You can use any number of
them that you'd like, but if you use all five in the set (in any
order) then you'll also be able to use our sixth BONUS puzzle
that utilizes the answers to the other five! In this way, you'll
have a built in great way to end your treasure hunt while also
ensuring that your participants didn't take any 'short cuts' along
the way.
Although
each puzzle is a stand alone mini-activity, they revolve around
a central back-story that can be used for the overall theme of
your hunt. You see, five international archeological teams are
all searching for the exact location of the tomb of Thutmose IV.
The bonus puzzle reveals that final location as the grand finale
to the hunt (if you so decide to use the bonus puzzle.)
This
package includes five individual puzzles that are each a mini
activity. The first task each participant will be faced with when
arriving at a puzzle location is to find the clue sheet (this
is typically detailed in the previous clue at the previous location
of the hunt.) They will then need to search the surrounding area
at this stop for the needed written clues that are hidden. Once
all of the clues are found, they will need to solve the puzzle
which will reveal where they are to go next. The puzzles are not
overly challenging to solve....once all the clues are found, that
is.
Not
including the bonus puzzle, there are five puzzles provided:
One
requiring logic - Can you figure out which US National Team
archeologist visited which city?...They're counting on you... |
One
requiring deduction - Which major Ancient Egyptian site did
the French National Archeology Team forget to check? |
One
requiring assembling pieces to a map - The Egyptian National
Team are certain that the tomb was far away from the Nile...are
they right? |
One
requiring the encoding of a secret message - Help the German
team figure out the secret message in a hidden anti-chamber... |
One
where the participants ACTUALLY TRANSLITERATE ANCIENT EGYPTIAN
HIEROGLYPHS in order to solve the puzzle! - The Russian Team
is counting on you! |
Because
we don't confine you to OUR locations for the treasure hunt (we
don't choose you locations for your participants to visit or search
for), you are able to use these treasure hunt puzzles at any type
of location or playing area you have available. How are we able
to do this? Our clever design has left only one aspect for your
to fill in...lots of POSSIBLE locations relative to your available
playing area. However, as each clue will have several to choose
from they'll need to solve the puzzle in order to figure out which
is the REAL next location! We've done all the heavy lifting in
the design while leaving you the maximum amount of flexibility
without sacrificing any of the creativity!
What
do actual customers have to say about this treasure hunt puzzles
collection?
"I
actually purchased the Ultimate Egypt Adventure package to carry
to Swaziland,Africa and give to friends, Steve and Monica, who
are serving as missionaries there. Steve is a trained historian
and amateur archeologist and for his 40th birthday his wife gave
him a surprise archeology themed birthday. It was a big hit and
all the guests had a great time." Greg B.
"I
am very excited to do the treasure hunt for my daughter's 11th
birthday party. She is very into Egypt. We also got your ideas
for Ancient Egypt and I got some good ideas from that...The treasure
hunt will be the hit, I am sure." Jennifer N.
"I
just wanted to thank you guys for a great treasure hunt experience
with your Egyptian treasure hunt. I had a party last night and
it was a huge success...I adapted it to work in my two bedroom
condo, too!" Kira B.
"I
am so excited to have yet another of your great books. I have
your Pirate Adventure, a few Halloween books and your Spy Adventure
- oh, yeah - I have an Indiana Jones (Egypt) one as well. They
are all great and I can't wait to use the Western One for an upcoming
party for my teenage daughter. Thanks for all your hard work"
- Denise B.
"We
have enjoyed using the hunts we have purchased from you (pirate
and Egypt.) We sometimes use more than one by mising the elements
to create something new. We love adding props and costumes to
make it a great experience to be had by all." Bonnee
