10 Monster superheroes have been spotted at ten different locations in Newry and it’s your job to find them!
MonsterHero Safari is a FREE ambitious new project which is bringing a fun, family experience to many high streets this summer while supporting the NHS to raise over £100k for NHS Charities Together.
The “Safari” hosted by Newry Business Improvement District will give families a fun and safe reason to come back into town and give high streets a much-needed boost in footfall.
MonsterHero Safari works by utilising contactless NFC technology and QR codes and is app-free without the need for players to download or sign up.
How to Play
The Safari consists of 10 window decals, monster superheroes, with embedded NFC tags that the participating venues will host.
Families can engage with the experience by tapping or scanning each character and learning their names, stories, and powers. Younger children will enjoy spotting the cute and colorful characters and older kids (and grown-up ones) will engage by learning more about them.
After finding all 10 MonsterHeroes, families will be rewarded with a free e-book about their first adventure and a FREE goody bag that will be available to collect at the event space, Marcus Square, Hill Street.
IMPORTANT: You must use the SAME browser on the SAME device for monster collection. You must have browser cookies enabled and not clear them during the Safari.
NHS Charities Voluntary Donation
Throughout the experience, a voluntary donation to NHS Charities Together would be much appreciated.
The safari has been designed completely contactless so that players can only interact in small family groups whilst adhering to social distancing.
