Make it harder

Require every teammate to appear in at least three photos.

Game mode setup

Use this as the main activity from Social Flow Board. Play for points, bragging rights, or simple rotation first. STUD mode is optional and the activity works without it.

Why it works

It turns a normal photo hunt into a game with proof, quick decisions, and a surprise rule that changes the route.

Safety / fair play

Use a safe space, avoid hard contact or unsafe surfaces, adjust for age and skill, and agree on close calls before the round starts.
