The audio files come in standard .mp3 format. You can play them with any normal music player on a phone or tablet – no extra app or special software needed. Just download and press play.
2. What is the best way to play them during the scavenger hunt?
The easiest option is to download the files before the hunt starts, so you don't rely on mobile internet outdoors.
For larger groups or outdoor play, a small Bluetooth speaker helps all children hear the story clearly. The files are numbered, so you can play them in the correct order – matching each station.
3. Are they just simple read-aloud audios?
No 🙂 The audio files are designed to be narrative and lively, so the kids feel like they are inside the story. The messages are not just read aloud – they sound like small audio-drama moments at each station. This boosts attention and keeps everyone deeply engaged.

Jason G. –
My twin boys went crazy for the ninja theme. We did this in the backyard with 6 kids and it lasted about 85 minutes. The craft activity at the end was a great way to wrap up. Really well designed.
Jennifer P. (verified owner) –
Really fun activity for my 8 year old and his friends. The ninja theme is super cool and the kids loved pretending to be stealthy while looking for clues. I wished there were a few more clues — my son’s crew solved it a little fast. But overall a great activity and honestly pretty impressive for the price. Would buy again!
Daniel P. (verified owner) –
Fun and well-designed! The kids really got into character as little ninjas. A couple of the riddles were a bit tricky for the younger ones (age 5) but the older kids helped them out.
Chris B. (verified owner) –
The ninja theme was a HUGE hit with the boys at my son’s 7th birthday. They loved the stealth missions and code-cracking challenges. One kid told his mom it was “the best party ever” — made my day!
Lauren H. (verified owner) –
Printed it 30 minutes before the party and it was ready to go. The instructions are super clear and the kids absolutely loved it. Saving this company for every birthday from now on.
Stephanie L. (verified owner) –
I was worried about keeping 12 kids entertained but this scavenger hunt handled it perfectly. They were running around solving puzzles for over an hour. So worth the price.
