Activity Description
Level Up is a high-energy, immersive adventure day where your unit is pulled into a corrupted game world. The system has failed, the gems have been scattered, and only your players can restore it.
Working in teams, girls will explore their surroundings, complete challenges, collect gems, and unlock new skills as they progress through the game. With a mix of physical activities, creative challenges, problem-solving, and teamwork, this is a full-day experience that keeps everyone engaged from start to finish. Perfect for camps, activity days, or outdoor meetings.
How to Play
1. Mission Briefing - Split players into teams and assign each a mascot and an inventory card. Introduce the storyline and explain the mission.
2. Begin the Adventure - Teams receive their first set of coordinates and travel to their first challenge area.
3. Complete Challenges - At each location, teams complete a challenge linked to one of the six gems. Each successful challenge earns a gem to attach to their inventory card. (Gems can be cut into puzzle pieces if using for a week-long residential)
4. Side Quests - Teams can complete optional side quests throughout the day to earn bonus XP, rewards and power-ups.
5. Restore the System - Once all six gems have been collected, the final coordinates are unlocked. Teams locate the portal and complete their escape challenge to complete the game.
Leaders can adapt the number of challenges, difficulty level and structure to suit their group and setting. This can be used for Adventure days, Weekend pack holidays or week-long residentials.

Keeping the Adventure Alive
At Hummingbird HQ, the goal is to keep resources free, accessible and available to leaders nationwide after a challenging period for my own unit, when rising costs and uncertainty around meeting spaces made it clear how fragile access to guiding activities can be. That experience shaped a commitment to sharing resources openly so that more leaders can be supported without added cost or barriers. Every donation, big or small, helps keep Hummingbird HQ running and enables the creation and sharing of new, free resources with leaders everywhere.
Donations are handled through Ko-fi, a safe and trusted platform for supporting creators. You can donate quickly and securely via PayPal or card, with no account needed.
