A late-spring afternoon finds teams fanning out across Northampton’s stone-paved streets, smartphones buzzing as clues pulse across the city grid. Players slip down alleyways, skirt the market square and press into quiet courtyards while the police team tracks digital breadcrumbs—a real-world game where timing and local smarts matter more than brute speed.
Northampton began as a medieval market town and grew around its river crossings and trade routes; the compact centre still carries that layered history in its streets and civic architecture. The city’s gritty brick and Georgian facades provide a textured backdrop for a chase that mixes strategy with light urban exploration. Expect glimpses of Victorian arcades, public art and the busy market that has shaped local culture for centuries.
The Hunt is a two-hour, phone-driven activity that blends orienteering with role-play. Teams are split into criminals and police; criminals hide, recover objectives and evade capture while police receive periodic location updates and coordinate intercepts. The terrain is flat but continuous walking and short sprints are part of the game, so footwear and charging your device matter.
Practical notes: book a private session for teams, bring a fully charged smartphone and use public transport or nearby parking. Keep to public spaces and respect private property while playing. The experience is social and tactical—perfect for groups wanting an active, locally grounded way to see Northampton without a formal walking tour.
The Hunt is scheduled for approximately two hours from the start time.
Younger children can participate if physically able, but players should have moderate fitness and be able to use a smartphone; check age recommendations with the operator.
The activity is offered in English, German, French and Dutch according to the provider.
Full refunds are available if you cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled time; cancellations within 24 hours are non-refundable.
