Hi Jenny, can we compete in the UK? Yes, I'm pretty sure it's a worldwide hunt-- like Pokemon Go. They are based in Australia..... But I will confirm.

Hi Jenny, can we compete in the UK? Yes, I'm pretty sure it's a worldwide hunt-- like Pokemon Go. They are based in Australia..... But I will confirm. From Hidden Secrets: Technically, yes. We are not restricting it on our end; although some countries may have restrictions (as it is a game awarding cash). We say it is a "global, free-to-play game."

Are there any updates on this puzzle? They have been active on their Facebook Page, and so I assume the Mini-Hunt for $1000 is set to go.....on August 18th still....

Got an email this morning...
"It's nearly time! We go live this month: Hidden Secrets: Escape PRELUDE
This sneak peek treasure hunt includes seven days of mysterious story and puzzle solving. We are awarding $1,000 USD cash to the first to solve the treasure location*.
We will announce the launch date any day now! Want to know sooner? Here's a clue:
"Launching on 1"
When you add up the numbers in the date of our launch, and then reduce to a single number, you'll get a "1". Head over to our Facebook page to discuss your answers with your fellow treasure hunters!
There's ancient power in numeric symbolism. The number one signifies new beginnings, perhaps a start to an unusual journey requiring inventiveness and courage. Are you up for the adventure?
Be sure you've pre-registered for the free game:"
It looks like they are going to be launching pretty soon. No idea what they mean by reducing it to a single number, but I'm sure we will find the answer soon enough!

All I can think is that it's going to be August 17th or 26th.
0+8 + (2+6 or 1+7) + 2+0+1+9 = 28
2+8 = 10
1+0 = 1
That's my way of thinking

Another e-mail from Hidden Secrets this morning... "LAUNCH DATE REVEAL!!
SATURDAY AUGUST 17, 2019
Yes! In less than 1 week, we will launch our special 7-page mobile experience: Hidden Secrets: Escape Prelude. For those who figured out our clue drop earlier this week [Answer: 08-17-2019 = 28 = 10 = 1] - congratulations! It was a bit of practice and fun for the game ahead!
What to Expect:
* A single journal page will be released every 24 hours (or so), with the first page and game launch happening sometime on Saturday, August 17th. Be sure you've pre-registered so you receive notifications for each page release!
* In-game Gold Coins may be used to purchase hints to the daily puzzles or to instantly win a challenging mini-game and page piece. Coins can NOT be used for any help on deciphering the clues to the treasure location. Want an early start on your gold coin stash? Join our SECRET CIRCLE and refer friends!
* Prelude is a limited release game with only 7 journal pages available for play. To play for the $1,000 cash treasure, be sure to catch up by our 7th day of release (Friday, August 23rd) - when we will open a world map for players to pinpoint the treasure location! Note that the game will still remain open for play for many weeks after that date; however, the $1,000 cash award will likely already be won.
* Prelude is a preview of our upcoming 30-Day adventure, Hidden Secrets: Escape In Time, coming soon after and awarding up to $100,000 in cash! We would love your feedback to help us bring our best forward! Prelude includes an in-app survey and we appreciate any comments after you play.
See you on the inside very soon!
The Hidden Secrets Team"
So... we are a less than a week away from the start of this intriguing hunt. It's all a bit exciting

It's out. I did the first page. Just a note for anyone not familiar with the type ads that are in the game. DON'T click on anything in the ad and just wait for an "x" to appear at the top of the page. Sometimes it will appear quickly, other times after 20 or 30 seconds. Sometimes you will click on the first x and you will get a second x to click on as well. Sometimes the x is hard to see. After a while you will understand the antics being used by the ad developers.
I collected lots of gold (700) very quickly around my neighborhood. After finishing the page and assembling the pieces and doing the solve, there is still gold showing on my map. I haven't tried going out again to see if you can still collect it. Has anyone else?

I tried to download it in the Google Play Store, but it's only giving me an option to "un-register" for the Prelude.
Anyone else having the same problem?

Google still has not pushed out the app for download. From what I read on the Hidden Secrets FB page, developers do not have any control over the time their content actually becomes available for download in the Play Store.
