Let's Tingo turns any outing into a scavenger hunt you play together, like bingo. Pick a game type, tell Let's Tingo where you're headed, and it suggests a list of things to find. Keep the good ones, reword or trash the rest, and add the ones only your group would think of. Share the game with a link or a QR code. Everyone gets their own board from the same list, and the first to fill five in a row calls a Tingo. FOR EVERY AGE AND EVERY GROUP A couple of friends or the whole family reunion. Kids, grown-ups, grandparents: if you can look around, you can play. Friends join in the app or right in a browser, and joining a game is always free. HOW IT WORKS Build your board: start from a game type, let Let's Tingo suggest finds, and make the list your own. Share it: send a link or show a QR code, and everyone joins the same game. Go play: head out and start looking. In most games, when anyone spots something, it shows up on every board that has it. PLAY TOGETHER, LIVE • Every find shows up in the game feed as it happens • The Players list keeps score while everyone plays • Take a photo or pick one from your album when you find something A GAME FOR EVERY KIND OF DAY • Photo games: every find needs a picture, so the board ends up holding the whole day • Timed games: play over a weekend, a vacation or a whole season • Prizes: name one when you set up, so everyone knows what they're playing for • Join any time: friends who catch up halfway can jump right in IDEAS PEOPLE LOVE • Road trips: license plates, landmarks and weird billboards • Holidays: costumes on Halloween, lights at Christmas • Hikes and walks: nature finds and neighborhood scavenger hunts • Parties and weddings: icebreakers that get everyone mingling • Classrooms and field trips • Date nights: explore your city together THE GAME IS THE WORLD AROUND YOU You use the app to set up and keep score. The fun happens wherever you are: at the park, in the car, around the dinner table, on the trail. Plenty of games are free to make. Premium game types use a game credit or a subscription. Play anywhere. Spot anything.
