Quizhunter Worldwide





"Where in the world is Carmen Santiago"? A real classic from the 80s where you have to find Carmen, while you are travelling around the planet. This mixture between adventure and quiz was used for this homage, called "Quizhunter Worldwide".


The player steps into the role of a private detective to find missing persons. In a chase around the world it is up to you to solve 2000 different riddles in 62 countries. Get the important clue where your missing person fled to. In each capital you can ask witnesses at the market place, the library, the stadium or the stock exchange. Depending on the visited location you get clues about culture of a country, sports, economy or generell clues.


"Quizhunter worldwide" offers four different game modes for singleplayer and multiplayer. In the singleplayer campaign the detective must find the lost brother of a millionaire heir. A journey which leads the player around the world starts. At the end of each singleplayer mission you can buy up to 12 upgrades for your detective, which enables him to do better inquisitions, reduces his costs for flying with a plane or gives him other advantages. In the "Freestyle" game mode you can capture cirminals and try to archieve a good ranking and maybe become the best detective of the world or use it for practise if you want to compete in multiplayer games with your friends. Besides of the "competetion"-multiplayer mode for two, three or four players there is a new exciting game mode, which allows one of two players to become a criminal and flee from the other player as private detective. The fleeing criminal can manipulate witnesses on his escape route and choose a tricky flight route to prevent the detective from finding him. Confuse your oponent with manipulated witnesses, lead him into countries where he knows nothing about and block his favorite question categories. This game can be so mean... you will love it!


In every game mode the players may choose between the four different private detectives Matthew, Tiffany, Kerrin and Jimmy. All have a different history and their own advantages and disadvantage for the hunt. An enormous ammount of different clues prevent the game of getting boring and steadily modified escape routes invite the player to play this game over and over.
