"Rejected by her own world, Omega Carnega has new plans to bring her experiment to your world. You have two choices. You can simply wait for the chaos or put an end to this crazy carnival.."

Scoot is a parallel virtual world that exists in the same space as Federation Square. Due to a tear in the fabric of spacetime that separates the world of Scoot from our 'real world', Aliens are poised to invade..and only you can stop them!

A location-based game for all ages, Scoot takes participants on a unique interactive treasure hunt through the virtual world (Scoot) and the real world of ACMI, ArtPlay and Federation Square, which will be populated by strange objects and magical animated characters. In order to avoid invasion, groups must seek help, solve clues and complete challenges. Prizes to be won!

Using the form of treasure hunt and puzzle games in the real world, as well as on-line navigation and flash games, Scoot is played out via SMS instructions sent to participants mobiles. Groups of 2 to 6 can register, with each group requiring a mobile phone to play.

Presented with the support of the City of Melbourne, Federation Square, Queensland University of Technology and ArtPlay.
