For organizers

Build a game your staff can explain and your players can trust.

Technology is only one part of a successful HVZ program. The operating model starts with local approval, clear rules, trained staff, visible boundaries, and a realistic plan for game week.

Readiness areas

Resolve the important questions before registration opens.

01

Authority and ownership

Identify the sponsoring organization, accountable lead, approving departments, and who can make live rulings.

02

Rules and boundaries

Define allowed equipment, safe zones, play hours, conduct expectations, accessibility considerations, and incident procedures.

03

Staffing and communication

Set coverage for information sessions, check-in, missions, support chats, reports, and urgent campus communication.

04

Player preparation

Make registration, required documents, briefings, wristbands, identification, and activation steps unambiguous.

Game-week operations

Give staff a shared picture of what is happening.

  • Publish current objectives and targeted announcements
  • Keep player identity, faction, and wristband status consistent
  • Record tags, adjustments, and administrative interventions
  • Provide a clear path for player questions and reports
  • Monitor the game without requiring constant manual reconciliation

Important boundary

The platform supports local decision-making; it does not replace it.

Every campus has different policies, facilities, accessibility needs, safety requirements, and approval processes. Organizers remain responsible for working with the appropriate local departments and for adapting the game to their environment.

Start with context

Tell us about your organization, timeline, and current process.

We can use that information to discuss which parts of the platform fit and what should be resolved locally first.
