### "A game changer!"

October 3, 2023

5.0

I've used GooseChase for several virtual programs since 2020. It has been a great resource for me as a 4-H coordinator and they youth have tons of fun with it. Our GooseChases are not your traditional scavenger hunt, but give youth various tasks to complete. The video submissions are always the best, but require a length limit warning.

Pros

The app is very easy to use and has a wide range of applications.

Cons

There are a few features that are hard to find, like sending a message to participants. We also do a lot of random prize drawings from teams that have actually participated, so a random drawing feature would be cool.

### " A Teacher's Dream!"

August 8, 2023

5.0

Excellent

Pros

Goosechase is a fast and efficient and free (for up to 5 groups) way for educators to desing target-specific tasks. The safety features allow for students to express themselves via video and photo in a secure manner only seen by the educator-a rare gift in our social media driven society. I highly recommend Goosechase for team building and educational lessons that have a high impact on learning.

Cons

Perhaps Goosechase would consider offering even more than 5 free particpants for the educational setting?

Reason for choosing Goosechase

Goosechase has a plethora of examples, clear instructions for use and a library of resources.

### "Fun and Useful for team building. "

August 18, 2023

5.0

As an educator we have used this to have students show their knowledge on a specific problem such as rules and procedures. This was a great way to review.

Pros

I have used this both as an educator and personally. We have used it to review procedures and had fun making memories at a family reunion. It is easy to use and gives users choice in their play. I love that you can add in your own tasks.

Cons

The only difficulty I noticed was a limit on the number of devices per team as well as how many teams. It looks like the paid version has a lot more options. More premade Chase options are also needed.

### "Goosechase for the Win! "

October 4, 2023

5.0

A platform doesn’t get much easier to use than Goosechase.

Pros

We purchased Goosechase to drive attendee behavior during our conferences and this platform has exceeded our expectations. It’s very easy to customize and use plus the customer support is not notch.

Cons

We wish we could put a cap on the number of participants registered per team and have more control over when the leaderboard was shown. During the debrief call we learned this was all on the road map.

### "New pricing is terrible"

August 14, 2023

5.0

Overall, I love it! I love the user-friendly platform and all the options!

Pros

I love the easiness of Goosechase! I have been using it for almost 10 years. My students love it and so do I.

Cons

I am very unhappy with the options for pricing. I was fortunate enough to have used it for a long time to receive a school k-12 discount. Now, the new pricing keeps me from being able to continue our partnership. We only use it maybe twice a year with all of our new students during orientation. However, with the new pricing, I have gone to another digital platform. I wish I could stay with Goosechase, but your prices are too high for us.

Reason for choosing Goosechase

I am not longer using Goosechase since you have changed your pricing.

### "Engagement Fun"

August 8, 2023

5.0

Overall, the experience is fun, and it is useful for getting participants engaged.

Pros

The best thing about Goosechase is that it is a fun and energetic tool that gets participants engaged in a path of discovery while activating their creativity through healthy competition. It is very user friendly.

Cons

Initially, it is a little awkward to get set up, but after an administrator does it once, it is relatively easier to navigate. It could be a little more intuitive on the administrator's side.

Reason for choosing Goosechase

It is free to educators. This is highly valuable when educators have spend their own money to supplement instructional activities.

### "Goosechase Contest"

October 16, 2023

4.0

It's okay. You can sense our frustrations from the things we liked least. It's not worth it for 5K a year, we had begun to look for other products and evaluate if we want to continue to use the platform for the usage we have been seeing.

Pros

\-Ease of adding in missions-pretty basic making it easy for multiple people to admin the game

Cons

\-no ability to send images to players-no ability to charge players to play the game-no ability to send discounts to players-no ability to have players reply to a message/feedback you send-did not want to integrate other programs with goosechase, too many clicks/links for the public

Reason for choosing Goosechase

Ease of use, good intro offer.

### "Great for Gamifying the classroom"

August 17, 2023

5.0

Pros

Love the fact I can set up missions and the STUDENTS are doing the work but having a blast trying to "beat" each other. I use it for media center orientation and it has taken a required lesson from being soooo boring that even I the librarian finds it a snooze fest, and really made it fun, and interactive. It allows me to set my first experience with my students as a wonderful and engaging experience.

Cons

I don't really have any negative things to say. I have used Goosechase for well over 4 years and its been a hit every time with the students.

5.0

I love using Goosechase for environmental science and outdoor labs as well as on field trips. It is also great for team building

Pros

I love that my students can compete in challenges that use photos and videos. This allows them to be creative whileLearning

### "An honest review of Goosechase"

August 14, 2023

4.0

I absolutely love goosechase. It has been great reflecting on the pictures that have been shared through the app.

Pros

I love that this app Gets my students up and moving. Though it is a competition many of them love to help and support others through it.

Cons

I haven't seen many updates and changes when using it. I would love to have an expanded school library for missions. Additionally it would be great to be able to create experiences through the app instead of only on the website

### "Goosechase changed the game for our orientation"

October 3, 2023

5.0

Overall, this was an enormous hit. Our students had a blast, got involved immediately, and it was so so easy to track the leaderboard, download and use the images, and I loved how interactive it was during play.

Pros

We wanted to find an app that would allow us to create a dynamic orientation event for our MBA students in their first week of school. It was so easy to use, update, and add missions that choosing them was a no brainer. I loved the option to have a video/photo, GPS, or text mission to create a diverse event for my students. I loved being able to message them in the middle of the game, and to use the submissions immediately to promote the game the next day and for future marketing.

Cons

The one thing that was challenging was moving the missions into a custom order. I wanted the missions in a specific order, and when I created a new one, moving it to the right spot was challenging - I had to drag it to the right spot, and for some reason this was harder than it sounds.

Alternatives considered

[Scavify](https://www.capterra.com/p/192779/Scavify/)

Reason for choosing Goosechase

Scavify was a little more challenging to learn, and Goosechase was immediately intuitive. Goosechase was also willing to work with me on pricing so that it was more competitive than the alternative.

### "An Absolute Gamechanger"

October 16, 2023

4.0

LOVE it!! Most importantly, I absolutely LOVE the Goosechase support team. They are friendly, respond quickly, and really do care.

Pros

Goosechase has been an absolute game changer for us! We use it for literally everything, and it is so much fun. It has allowed us to provide our services to families in a fun, gamified manner; it makes analytics and communication easy, and the Goosechase team is absolutely AMAZING!

Cons

I wish we had better options for organizing our various hunts. It would also be nice to have an option for 2-way communication and even commenting within the game.

We only use goosechase once a year.

Pros

It was previously available for us to use.

Cons

There is a lot of content building that goes into this for the way we use goosechase. It is VERY time intensive for staff leading up to the event.

Reason for choosing Goosechase

We had a partnership with someone who was already using goosechase.

### "Love the product - not the increase in cost"

August 8, 2023

5.0

I LOVE Goosechase and would continue it but price went up so it is something I have to consider letting go this year.

Pros

missions and then how easy it is to go live - I really like how interactive it is - you can see pictures scrolling, give bonus points, tips, etc.

Cons

The price went up and it is significant.

Reason for choosing Goosechase

I loved the engagement is provides for staff. I also really like how it shows the pictures of missions posted to make it extra fun for staff to see.

### "Back to School Team Building"

August 8, 2023

5.0

Pros

Setting up missions for my faculty to complete during our team-building event was very easy. My staff was highly engaged and enjoyed participating in the Goosechase. Several faculty members even decided to use Goosechase in their lessons during the school year after participating.

Cons

The only suggestion I would make is to offer education accounts the ability to have 6 teams instead of 5. Our class sizes are increasing each year and 6 teams would help us to have manageable team sizes. Alternatively, giving the option to have a monthly payment option for the paid educator account.

August 14, 2023

I continue to use Goosechase to help people with trainings. It has been a great tool and is often called upon by our administration.

Pros

Goosechase was a great tool for getting our staff engaged and connected. It helped to connect people who likely would not have spoken to each other. It also brought fun to a routine training. It served its purpose and more.

Cons

I can't think of any cons. Overall the groups I used it for spoke highly of its use.

August 21, 2023

5.0

I loved using this as a team-building exercise with my high school cross country team. It was a great way to get kids out, exploring the neighborhood, and working together to solve problems.

Pros

I liked that you could see a live data feed of participants as they posted.

Cons

It would be better if there was some sort of intelligent system for auto-scoring so that everything didn't have to be manually reviewed

August 14, 2023

Pros

My students love to play games to help them learn. I try to incorporate Goosechase into as many lab activities as I can. It also gives them a chance to work as a team and interact with different classmates each time.

Cons

It would be nice if you could see when a new submission was made in a mission. I have to click on each mission and see if there is anything new.
