7. Complete challenges to earn a score
There are different types of challenges the game publisher can use when he sets up a challenge at a treasure point. A treasure can have one or more challenges and the player is rewarded with virtual gold coins and game items. When a user discovers a treasure, he will be presented with a challenge. There are different types of question challenges, photo challenges, draw challenges, and memory card games. There are three levels of memory games; easy, medium, and hard. The boards are different and the player is given a certain time to finish the task, the seconds count down as he flips the cards.
The game publisher decides how many points the player gets in rewards. He can also give vouchers to the players as rewards for finishing certain challenges or getting a certain amount of points.

The scoreboard shows all teams’ scores, how many challenges have been solved, and the scores for each one. The game can be ended from this screen.
