Quest for the Golden Compass

About the Event

The event features 100 teams, each consisting of 5 members, participating in an engaging treasure hunt-style challenge across multiple locations. These teams are spread across 50 cities in 5 different countries. Clues, which include geopolitical information and symbols, will serve as guides for teams to progress to the next locations. The challenges involve quizzes and elimination rounds, testing the participants’ knowledge and skills. In the end, the top 10 teams that successfully reach the final location will be declared the winners. The key factors for success in this competition are a solid foundation of general knowledge, awareness of current affairs, and strong cognitive abilities. Judging will be based on the time taken to complete the challenge as well as group selfies taken at each location.
