In this app we are going to create a game mainly for the students of Northwest Missouri State University.The main target devices for this game to work on are iPhone SE,laptop,ipad and an Android device.This game helps the bearcats to explore various places on campus and helps in building team work by working in teams.This game is similar to that of treasure hunt. We will take certain area into consideration and make them into blocks mainly identified by means of latitudes and longitudes. Players earn points whenever they reach the set location which is also called as "Destination".Each player can create a team and can play together.They can also enter into a competition and can compete with each other.
We would like to create an app that can be played on a mobile device. The app would encourage players to complete a 'quest' by encountering a specific list of locations. A player would activate one of the locations in the quest. In order to score points, the user must enter the geographic area (as determined by their mobile device). Locations may be explicitly identified (easier) - or described using clues (harder). The quest may require locations to be accessed in a specific order - or in any order as specified by the quest creator.

The main purpose of this treasure hunt game is to develop physical and mental fitness in people.Day-by-day human-beings are becoming lazy due to this COVID-19 pandemic, so by developing these kind of apps one can bring activeness among individuals.
-
We might want to make an application that can be played on a cell phone. The application would urge players to finish a 'mission' by experiencing a particular rundown of areas.
-
A player would enact one of the areas in the mission. To score that area, the client must enter the geographic territory (as controlled by their cell phone). Areas might be expressly distinguished (simpler) - or depicted utilizing hints (more diligently). The mission may expect areas to be gotten to in a particular request - or in any request as indicated by the journey maker.
ER Diagram for this game consists of various entities like Team,User,Player,competition,Quest,Location.
- Each user may be part of any number of teams and participate in many competitions.
- A Team must have one or more Players and even Player can or can not be a part of team.
- Each Competition should have atleat one Team and Team can be an independent of Competition.
- Quest must have one or more locations,Location can contain optional quests.
-The ER Diagram shown above consists of the following attributes: User,Team,Quest,Location,Competetion,Player,TeamPlayer,Location of Quest,TeamCompetition.
The user entity consists of Username as primary key and the other attributes of user consists of Email,password,Datecreated,DateLastaccesed.A user has to register while entering into the game.A registered user may be a part of a single team or may be a part of multiple teams.
The entity team has the following attributes: are TeamID as the primary key.The other attributes of this entity are TeamName,Creator,Datecreated,DatelastEdited and the username as the foreign key.
This entity consists of the following attributes QuestName,designer,datecreated and datelastaccesed. A quest can be created by the user and may provide with clues inorder to reach the location.A Quest consists of any number of locations mainly small number so that it does not add extra data and does not make our application critical.
The competition entity has the attributes as CompetitionID as the primary key and competitionName,creator,datecreated,start and end date for the competition.The creator of the competition will specify the start and end time of the competition.
Attributes of the location entity are Locationnumber, Locationclue, Locationcoordinates. Locationnumber is the primary key of the entity and location coordinates will help in determining the actual location of the hunt with the help of the location coordinates.The location in the quest is mainly identified by means of the latitudes and longitudes values.
A registerd user will act as a player and he can be part of any number of teams.A player entity has the following attributes such as playernickname and points scored.Points will determined when the player reaches the location based on the clue provided.
This is an associative entity that has composite primary key that consists of primary keys of both the entities Quest and Location. This has the attributes such as QuestName and Locationnumber.
TeamCompetition is an associative entity in between Team and Competition entities.This entity has composite primary key made from two entities Team and Competition.This entity has the following attributes as TeamID, CompetitionID and Teamscore which is sum of all the score earned by all the team members.
This is an associative entity between Team and player. This has a composite primary key made up of TeamID and PlayerID.The remaining attributes of this entity are DateInvited into the team,DateAcceptedInvite,DateRejectedInvite and DateLeftTeam. If a person does not accept the invitation within three days then it will be considered as automatic rejection.
