Treasure hunting

X-routes games are sort of treasure hunts, only supercharged.

The players travel from one exciting checkpoint to another collecting points and unlocking achievements. The checkpoints can be quizzes, actions or location based. There are also secret checkpoints which can only be seen after the prerequisites are met, which enables true storytelling experience.

Players can take part in multiple public games or invite only games, and play as single players or in groups. The possibilities are endless.
