With xamoom, the classic scavenger hunt becomes an innovative digital adventure—intuitive, interactive, and full of surprises.

Thanks to integrated AI technology and a user-friendly interface, creating and managing scavenger hunts is simple and requires no programming knowledge. xamoom ensures that only those physically present can access the content—creating the perfect blend of digital and real-world adventure that keeps visitors engaged and delighted.


An Adventure for the Little Ones – Bakabu & the Wolf Song in St. Pölten

A wonderful example is the “Bakabu & the Wolf Song” project in St. Pölten. This scavenger hunt introduces children to the world of the beloved children’s character, Bakabu. Throughout the city, they can scan QR codes to uncover stories and songs.

This playful experience provides not only entertainment but also draws children’s attention to St. Pölten’s landmarks. The interactive & musical scavenger hunt strengthens the connection of families to the city, creating a lasting experience that children will remember for years to come:)

 

Knorzl at the Carinthian Museum – An Interactive Audioguide for Kids

Another impressive example is the Knorzl Audioguide at the Carinthian Museum. Knorzl, a playful little goblin from the ORF show Kuddlmuddl, takes children on an engaging journey through the museum’s permanent exhibition. Using the xamoom platform, young visitors can scan QR codes or NFC tags in each room to learn more about the artworks and themes on display.

A special highlight: Knorzl leaves behind “moon dust gold” in various rooms for the children to collect as he shares fascinating stories. This concept turns a museum visit into an interactive adventure, sparking curiosity about the region’s cultural heritage among young visitors.

 

Tourism and Scavenger Hunts – A Winning Formula for Visitors

xamoom harnesses storytelling to offer tourists a richer, more immersive experience. In the Wörthersee region, for example, a digital scavenger hunt connects historical tales with the scenic surroundings.
