Mobile Treasure Hunt - Cross-Platform

Mobile treasure hunt game that gives clues and uses GPS to determine if the user has solved the clue. Each clue can lead to the next and so on until the treasure is found.

IMPORTANT: This project does not have a formal industry or faculty mentor and is student team managed and directed.

Objectives

A working responsive cross-platform mobile app (Flutter/Dart, React Native, etc. – not a web app). A hosted backend (server and database) that allows treasure hunts to be created, downloaded, and run. User account creation and login capability.

Stretch Goals:

  • Leaderboard
  • Hint system
  • Rating system for the created treasure hunts
  • Difficulty rating by creator
  • Find treasure hunts in your area. Sort by difficulty or rating.
  • Your Choice!

IMPORTANT: This project does not have a formal industry or faculty mentor and is student team managed and directed. If you choose this project for a one-term Capstone such as CS 467, make sure to manage the deliverables for that time frame. Alternatively, if you choose this project for a 3-term capstone (such as CS 461, 462, and 463) you will be expected to make the project more robust (and to determine how best to do this). The Instructor and TAs are available to answer any questions you may have about the project or provide resources, etc.
