A downloadable game

🌍 What is Venari?

Venari is a real-world GPS chase game inspired by the classic "Mister X" concept — designed for youth groups, school events, or outdoor game lovers.

One player becomes the Venari, a mysterious fugitive trying to escape. The others become agents, working together in teams to track them down using real-time GPS data.

The game takes place in real environments — cities, parks, campuses — turning everyday spaces into thrilling arenas of strategy and movement.

🎮 Game Features

  • Live GPS Tracking: Move around your real-world environment. The app updates your location in real time.

  • Team Chase Mode: Agents collaborate to trap the Venari using smart movement and communication.

  • Virtual Abilities: The Venari can activate gadgets like smoke bombs or cloaking to evade pursuit.

  • Anywhere Play: No setup, no map-building. Choose any outdoor area and play instantly.

  • Offline-Ready Sessions: Once started, minimal data usage – great for areas with weak reception.

🧠 Why Venari?

  • Built for Group Fun: Perfect for youth work, camps, class trips, or team-building days.

  • No Ads. No Cost.: 100% free, built as a passion project with no monetization.

  • Rare Genre: There are barely any GPS-based team games that actually work and are up to date.

  • Lightweight & Accessible: One phone per person, no servers or registration needed.

🙌 Why Support This Project?

I'm Jonas, a solo developer from Hamburg, Germany. I created Venari because I saw how few modern, working team games exist for outdoor settings — especially for youth and educational use.

Venari is:

  • Open for free use in education, youth work, and leisure.

  • Actively maintained and developed based on community feedback.

  • Entirely non-commercial, built out of love for creative games and group dynamics.

If you like the idea, the best way to support is simply spreading the word.

📣 How You Can Help

  • 🎤 Share Venari in your school, youth group, or summer camp.

  • 🧪 Try it with your team and send feedback or ideas.

  • 📲 Post about it on Reddit, TikTok, Instagram, Threads — every mention counts!

  • 🌐 Feature it on your newsletter, blog, Discord, or community bulletin.
