In this game the player wakes up at 8:00 AM in a Goose Pond campsite and learns he has to find tickets for the last Jamboree bus before it leaves at 7:00 PM. The game runs in real time, with one second of real-world time equal to one second of game
time. Walking around camp also consumes time.
The game has 170+ photorealistic 3-D locations for the
player to explore. While walking around camp, the player expends health points. He
must keep his health level above zero (shown by how full the Life Scout patch is), or else he collapses
and must spend time recovering at the Health Lodge.
The player's backpack holds up to four items he might find in camp. Each campsite has a storage tent
where the player can drop off and pick up items to make room in his pack.
As he travels around camp, the player encounters staffers, skunks, and other challenges that will test his Scout skills and his reflexes. Goose Pond's mosquitos are
a special feature to watch out for: their stings reduce health, and they can
carry off backpack items!
