Let's clarify the terms:

Missions are interactive games or scavenger hunts consisting of various Challenges. Each Mission provides a map of its location and a Field Agent to assist you throughout your journey.

Challenges come in different forms, such as AR Picker, Image 50/50, AR Catch, AR Sorter, and Sound Matcher. Successfully completing all Challenges in a Mission will unlock a reward, making your adventure even more rewarding!

With Agents of Discovery, you'll uncover the secrets behind petroglyphs, understand the volume of water flowing over Niagara Falls, learn why the moon changes shape, discover who Martin Luther King Jr. was, appreciate the importance of bees, and find out how to prevent wildfires. More than that, you'll be inspired to think about how you can change the world. Let us guide you through these fascinating topics and more!
