Turn the stacks into a quest people can't put down.
Build a self-guided trail that sends visitors between shelves, scanning codes to unlock clues, stories and recommendations — a reason to wander deeper into the collection.
A tour no one reads. A hunt everyone finishes.
Signage gets ignored. A trail with a payoff at every stop gets completed. SimChoices lets you turn a wing, a theme or a reading list into a branching experience visitors play on their own phone — at their own pace, in any order.
- Print QR codes for shelves, displays and reading nooks
- Runs on the visitor's own phone — no devices to lend out
- Refresh the trail for each season or programme
Scan-to-explore trail
Three ways libraries put it to work.
A collection scavenger hunt
Hide a story across the shelves. Each book scanned reveals the next clue and a reason to pick it up.
Summer reading challenge
A branching reading quest where each finished book unlocks the next chapter and a badge to collect.
After-hours event games
Run a team mystery for a launch night or class visit — played live, right between the stacks.
See how libraries can tell stories with SimChoices.
Map your favourite corners of the collection, then place a QR code on each shelf. Every scan reveals a clue that points visitors to the next stop — and a book they'd never have found on their own.
Turn the holiday reading programme into a branching quest. Each finished book unlocks the next chapter of the story, and readers choose which genre path to follow from there.
Stage an after-hours whodunnit for a sleepover or teen night. Write a handful of suspects, hide the evidence between the stacks, and let teams scan their way to the culprit.
Build your first trail this week.
Bring a wing, a reading list or an event you're planning. We'll help you map it into a playable trail in 30 minutes.
