Student Mobile Engagements
Engaging students directly for campus discovery, orientation and team building or take it to the classroom. Your students have smartphones and we have ways to map out your campus. Let them discover the city, bond with other students, and enjoy amazing experiences. We also work with educators creating programs for students of all ages in class. Discovery games can be created with goals ranging as far as your creativity can take you.
The Experience
The Social Scavenger platform excels at campus orientation for all schools.
Build, Buy or Both
Buy experiences-in-a-box, build your own from scratch or a combination of the two. The Social Scavenger game builder gives you a huge amount of flexibility. That's why we have schools and universities building everything from Trivia and QR games for parent nights through to campus orientation for new students... and everything in between. After your training consultation you'll be empowered to create the perfect game for your students.
Supporting Services
Social Scavenger enables great games. Download the App, join your game and go. Keeping it simple for players is always the way to go. The heavy lifting is done in the game setup so your players can simply click 'challenges' and see what it is they get to accomplish. Leaderboards, live stream, push notifications and other engaging features keep it exciting for players. Engage our team to provide additional services such as moderation, judging, messaging, and summarizing game play.
Post Activity
The backend game builder and management system allows you to access what is happening in your game at any time, in real-time. You can even push out new challenges on the fly if you have a great idea, want to react to the environment or simply are having fun. The backend system has easy exports of content, reporting and more.
