The Schools BioQuest is now part of Guardians of Earth.
Get outdoors on adventure into the wild. Explore the magic of nature with the AR game ‘Spirits of the Realms’. Accept the Quests of the nature spirits, and capture (with photos!) as many Animals, Plants and Fungi as you can.
Map the diverse life within your schools ‘Nature Realm’, and compete for your team anywhere you can adventure in nature - a backyard, A local park, Or even by spotting insects that gather on the window at night.
It engages people – young and old – with nature, awakening a deep appreciation for all the amazing life forms... it is so much more than a game.

Spirits of the Realms is an AR adventure game where you build your collection of nature spirits by engaging with your local environment. All spirits are based on real wildlife.
Observed at actual locations.
Spirits of the Realms is from the creators of QuestaGame, the world's first mobile game that takes you outdoors to discover, map and ultimately help protect life on our planet. The photos of species you submit through the games - and any correct identifications you submit - are shared with leading biodiversity databases.
So you’re contributing to real research and conservation, while having fun and engaging with nature.
Simply download the ‘Spirits of the Realms’ mobile game, find the spirits, and complete their quests!
IMPORTANT TIP: Remember to get close-up photos - as long as it’s safe - to help the identifiers. (For plants, get close-up shots of the flowers).
Meet the young QuestaGame player who recently became a co-author of a scientific paper based on a sighting of a grasshopper he made while playing QuestaGame.
