What is ENcounter?
The purpose of the game is to detect locations and find hidden codes as fast as you can by accomplishing various missions in real world. The team is divided into staff and field players. The staff`s primary objective is to detect a place where field players must search for a code by solving various puzzles given by website. Field players get instructions from staff and search for codes using special equipment (local maps, gps devices, google earth, ultraviolet flashlights and so on...). As soon as field players find the code or receive it from undercover agent , they need to enter it in the website in order to advance to further level. Many teams compete against each other in this way.
All in all it is a fast-paced clever game which requires slyness, intelligence and exceptional teamwork. An unforgettable experience!
ENcounter Game Modes: Combat
Combat is a standard staff - field players encounter game. It is the most challenging and difficult of all game modes. Tasks are often given encrypted or with little reference to the code location. Hints are given time from time. Players have to be very perceptive to find out where is the task linking. Games are often held at nights, when streets are ready for players. ENcounter combat mode code sites are mostly old abandoned buildings or picturesque places. There are no limits, codes can be hidden under water, in drainage or anywhere else. The code locations are marked with EN signs to inform players that they came to the right place to search for a code. In order to participate in combat mode a team has to have a laptop with internet connection, one or more cars and regular, UV flashlights.

ENcounter Game Modes: PhotoHunt

Photohunt is different from combat encounter game. Instead of using cars, flashlights and laptops, teams only use photo cameras and their imagination. Certain tasks are given and teams have to interpret each task with a photo. It is all about how creative you are. After all photos were submitted, the jury ( several people) gives certain amount of points to each photo depending of how the task was fulfilled and how original the idea of the photo was. The team with the moist points win.
ENcounter Game Modes: GeoCaching
Geocaching

GeoCaching is similar to combat mode, but instead of finding codes written somewhere, codes are placed in plastic containers. When the game starts coordinates of each container are given and it`s just a matter of what route will the team choose to visit all containers the fastest. When a player finds a plastic container with a code he must leave a souvenir of his team in the container and take one himself.
The team that finds all containers first - win.
ENcounter Game Modes: PhotoExtreme

Photoextreme is a game format where teams are given tasks to make photos. Tasks describe briefly where the photo has to be taken or what has to be in that photo. The first team that submits all photos win. After the game the photos are reviewed and teams get bonuses for extra tasks or penalties for unfulfilled tasks.
ENcounter Game Modes: Wetwars

Wetwars is an individual encounter game, where a player becomes an assassin and has to drench his victims with a water weapon. Before the game information and photos of each player are given and the hunting begins. The game lasts from one to two weeks, so a player might be caught walking home after work, shopping or anywhere else. Player with the most kills win.
ENcounter Game Modes: Brainstorming

Brainstorming is an encounter game format where players don`t have to leave their homes during the game. All they have to do is solve puzzles as fast as they can. The player who solves all the tasks first - win.

- Nice job on this. It's definitely new to me! And thank you for adding this lens to the plexo on my "Squidoo Lenses That Don't Sell A Thing." (You entered the workshop link, so I fixed it so it would work.) Have a great day!
