I just held a virtual scavenger hunt with my friends over Zoom, and it was one of the best remote games I've played so far. Here's how to create your own.
, but social distancing measures remain in place — meaning it'll still likely be quite some time before you're having friends over for a movie night or impromptu party.
The way it works is simple: Each household comes up with a list of items, which is then shared with the rest of the group over Zoom. Then it's up to the players to find the listed items and show them to the group before time runs out. But the game is most fun when you get more conceptual with your choices. For example, my list included "something that someone else made for you" and "something you've owned since high school." Each team will take turns assigning their list to the other players and judging the results.
You can do this through the text chat feature built into Zoom or other video chat services, or through another text platform of your choice like Google Docs or email. It doesn't really matter how you share it as long as everyone playing the game can see the list. Set a time limit for how long it should take each player or team to retrieve the items. For a list of 10 items, we set a time limit of three minutes in my group.
