How to play Questbound
Game guide
Questbound: The First Adventure is a 3D explore-and-collect game. Start in Champion Meadow, make creature friends, collect squishies, and finish math, reading and sports quests. Every quest earns a star, and stars open the bridges to new lands.
The goal
Finish all 16 quests across five lands, then climb the Champion Tower in the meadow and claim the Champion Crown. After that, try to find all 15 creatures and all 15 squishies.
The five lands
| 🌼 Champion Meadow | Where it all starts: Pip’s Snack Shop, the story stone, the mini stadium and the Champion Tower. |
|---|---|
| 🌲 Whisperwood Forest | Opens at 2 ⭐. Hoot the owl, the Whisper Stone, bouncy mushrooms and the Firefly Ring Run. |
| 🐚 Sparkle Shore | Opens at 5 ⭐. Captain Shelby’s shell shop, a message in a bottle and Beach Hoops. |
| ❄️ Frosty Peaks | Opens at 8 ⭐. Grandpa Yeti, the Ice Stone and Skate Dash on a slippery rink. |
| 🌋 Ember Canyon | Opens at 11 ⭐. Professor Dusty, the ancient scroll and the Lava Hop to the Sunstone. |
Quests
- Math quests: talk to the shopkeepers and friends in each land and answer their number puzzles. Wrong answers just give you a hint, so keep trying.
- Reading quests: read a story, riddle or letter, then answer questions about it.
- Sports quests: race through rings, shoot hoops, skate on ice and jump across lava.
The note at the top of the screen always shows your next goal, and a gold arrow over your head points the way. Open the Adventure Journal (📜) to see every quest or pick one to track.

Tips
- Walk into a creature or squishy to collect it. Shy creatures run away, so chase them down.
- Some creatures and squishies hide up high. Look for steps, rock piles and purple bouncy mushrooms.
- Grab gold coins as you explore and win them in games, then spend them at Pip’s Snack Shop on hats, outfit colors, Speed Sneakers and Spring Boots (double jump).
- Pick which creature follows you in your Collection (🎒).
- In the Lava Hop, falling in only sends you back to the start. Watch the moving platforms and time your jumps.
- Your total XP goes on the shared leaderboard.
