How to play
The trail works by utilising contactless QR codes, without the need for players to download or sign up to anything. The trail consists of 10 story-points with embedded QR codes.
To take part simply:
- Test the Augmented Reality on your Device: https://highstreetsafari.com/christmas
- Visit the 10 stops, in any order, using the map below
- By scanning their QR codes with your phone’s camera (or typing the URLs, printed under the QR codes, directly into your browser’s address bar) you’ll collect digital stamps
- You’ll be presented with a fun challenge at each stop
- You can then see the AR character or selfie scene
- Once you’ve visited all of the stops you can take your prize badge selfie and download the free ebook
Important: You must use the SAME browser on the SAME device for character collection. You must have browser cookies enabled and not clear them during the trail.
How do I scan QR codes?
Most modern phones now automatically scan QR codes simply by opening your camera app and pointing at them. If your phone doesn’t have this capability you can download an app that reads QR codes instead.
