How to play Money Hunt
Here’s a step-by-step video tutorial on how to play Money Hunt in the Melbourne CBD on Feb 19
Q: How do you play Money Hunt?
At the start of the game, your team will receive a booklet of clues pointing to different sites. You can travel at your own pace by car, bicycle or on foot to reach the sites. Be the first to discover all sites and you win the equivalent prize money amount.
Q: What can I win from finding a Money Hunt site?
You can win anything from $5, $10, $20, $50 or $100 per site that you successfully discover ahead of everyone else. The more sites you discover first, the more money you win!
Q: Who can participate in Money Hunt?
Only registered individuals may participate in a Money Hunt. Each competing group may consist of one (1) to four (4) participants. Participants must be at least twelve (12) years old to register. A child or children may only play as part of a group if accompanied by a parent, a guardian or a responsible adult eighteen (18) years or older to whom written parental authority has been granted.
Q: What does my group need to bring to play the game?
Your group will need (1) one car (for transport around all the sites), and (1) one registered mobile phone (for communication to and from the event organiser throughout the event). Public transport, bicycles or other non-motorised transport devices, as well as mobile and GPS devices may also be used where it may be of an advantage to a group’s strategy and success. Remember that it is your responsibility to ensure that any vehicle or device that you use for the event are sufficiently covered by insurance in case of loss, damage, accident or the like.
Q: How do I register for a Money Hunt event?
Each individual participant must be registered online at www.moneyhunt.com.au prior to the event. To ensure that your transaction is secure, we only accept payments electronically via paypal. You do not need a paypal account to make a payment through paypal. You have an option to use your credit or debit card to make a payment. You will receive an electronic ticket by email once your registration is complete. Please print the e-ticket or save a copy to your mobile device for sighting on the actual day of the hunt.
Q: How long does a Money Hunt event take to finish?
You have a total of four hours to discover as many sites as you can before other groups do. You will receive a courtesy advise by SMS once a site has been found by another group, so you can direct your attention towards sites that have not yet been found. After 4 hours, all remaining undiscovered sites expire.
Q: What safety precautions should I keep in mind when playing?
All Money Hunt sites are located in areas that are safe and accessible to pedestrians; either fixed to existing man-made infrastructures such as paths, staircases, beach access ramps, boardwalks, signs, handrails and the like. At no time will Money Hunt sites be situated in areas that could foreseeably pose a threat to the safety of participants, to the local environment or to private property. Participants are expected to abide by local council, state and national park laws at all times. All vehicle driving, bicycle riding or pedestrian movement throughout a Money Hunt event is the responsibility of the group’s nominated driver(s) and associated individuals in accordance with Victorian Law and road safety and pedestrian guidelines. You participate at your own risk when playing for Money Hunt. Should any medical emergency arise while out and about during this event, participants should seek the assistance of Ambulance Victoria by dialing 000. Money Hunt organisers or any of your co-participants reserve the right to seek the assistance of Ambulance Victoria on your behalf, at your cost.
Q: What environmental considerations should I keep in mind when playing?
At no time will a Money Hunt site be located in areas that will require you to venture into fragile ecological systems or animal habitat areas. At all stages of the event, please make every effort to stay to existing designated paths and areas free from wildlife habitats and leave any area you visit in the same way you found it.
Q: What if a Money Hunt event is cancelled due to health and safety considerations?
Money Hunt reserves the right to cancel an event for health and safety considerations, including extreme weather disturbances, security threats, amongst others. Money Hunt will only offer a refund or exchange of a ticket if an event is cancelled, rescheduled or significantly relocated (and you cannot or do not wish to attend the rescheduled or relocated event), or to the extent otherwise required by law. You must apply for a refund within a reasonable time. Money Hunt does not offer refunds or exchanges as a result of a change in your personal circumstances. If an event is cancelled, rescheduled or significantly relocated, all liability is limited to the amount for which the ticket was purchased, including any fees or charges. Proof of purchase may be required for any refund or exchange. Unless required by law, Money Hunt will not be liable for any other losses incurred by you as a result of the cancellation, rescheduling or relocation of an event, including any travel and accommodation expenses.
