Group the images of the rewards we want them to get for each challenge. They will come out randomly

What to do with this page: This page should contain the introduction to your game. The orange box and the pictures with the pink boxes will be invisible, just keep them in the corner of the page. Make sure this page is skipped when "continue" is selected on the first slide, otherwise your game might be reset to zero. First, change the parameters of the game by changing the text next to your own preferences (see explanation below). Make sure to keep the text grouped with the orange box. Ungroup the Easter eggs and the pink boxes. Replace the eggs with your own pictures and group each with a pink box. Remember that they will be randomly assigned to a challenge, so the order here is not relevant. Delete the current texts on this slide and replace them with your own game instructions, introduction to the story or just with pictures.

1. 5 indicates how many challenges you have. Make sure you have the same number of reward pictures (instead of Easter eggs)
2. Optional [1-5] indicates the range of possible values for the pass code. If you don't specify a range, any number between 0-9 can be included
3. Optional: backgrounds of found passcord will have different, random colours (out of the ones below)
4. Optional: colour hex codes that associated with each digit. To find the hex code, open the colour palette, e.g. for font colour, and choose a colour. Then copy the code that appears underneath it (always starts with a #)
5. no-repeat makes the digits/images/colours of the password non-repeating (if there are enough pictures available and the number range is large enough)

Make as many copies of the red box as you have avatar options. Group each avatar option with a red box (change the size of the red box first). Place the green box on ALL pages where you want the chosen avatar to be visible. Keep it grouped with any picture - the picture will be replaced with the chosen avatar.

Any page (optional)

Saving...

Place these elements on any page where you want to create automatic bookmarks. The progress through your game will be saved automatically even without theses bookmarks. as long as the players don't go back to the introdcution page, which will reset any progress.

Map page

Map page

Add links to your activity/task pages. Also add a link to the reward page.Add one of the progress bars from the progress bar template page.

Optional: If you want your character/avatar to move around the map, use the extension below.

Add the yellow box somewhere on your page - will be invisible.

Group the blue boxes and green "off boss" with a feebback text or picture (e.g. a tick or a star) which will appear after each challenge is complete. Use as many as you need (up to 10). Make sure you keep them in the right order. If you want to stop players from re-playing challenges, make sure the feedback object covers the link to the challenge.

Group this text with the picture of the character or the green avatar box. The picture has to face forwards or to the right (the picture will flip when going from right to left)

The three elements below can be copied and pasted to create as many as you need. Duplicating and grouping them changes the number and their order, so make sure you always group them in the right order. When you group or duplicate, the number will change to X - go to a different slide and come back and it will show the current number (always starting with 0). Make sure that the three elements with the same number are all next to each other/on top of each other.

Group this text with the names of your challenges - this is where you need to click to make it move.

Place this text on top of the "zone de clic" (don't group!) This it where the picture will move to.
