Eureka

The problem it solves

A location based scavenger hunting platform

Eureka turns everyday walks into treasure hunts with real on-chain rewards. In a world where we spend hours in digital spaces, Eureka brings you back to the streets — reconnecting you with your city through gamified, privacy-respecting exploration. Here is a video of me actually playing Eureka and earning on-chain rewards : Video

• A self-sustaining ecosystem where:

  • Eureka grows through user-generated quests

Challenges we ran into

• Integrating Witness chain AVS on Eigen required us to be whitelisted and the setup itself took some time
• UX and UI for such gamified experience was quite complex
• Migration to mainnet needed audits + double checks + tests + fixing lots of bugs
• Re-iterating at each step based on user feedback
