Grid Quest
Treasure Map Explorers
Captain Pip says
Ahoy, explorers! Hide on my treasure island, then hunt for each other using four-figure grid references.
- Pick an island size (bigger = trickier!).
- Each explorer secretly hides on one square.
- Explorer 1 starts by giving a clue: where they are compared with one landmark.
- Explorer 2 reads it and digs. Missed? Now give your own clue and pass the phone. Each round you only see the newest clue, so remember the old ones! First to dig up the other explorer wins.
🧭 How to read a grid reference
Along the beach, then up the palm tree!
First go along to the Easting (03), then up to the Northing (02).
The golden square is 0302.
