How it works GeoCats

The city is the board: real places, cultural challenges and a golden rule — the answer cannot be googled from the couch.

Choose your game

That's the way to play

  1. 1 Buy and get your code right away. No apps: played from the mobile browser.
  2. 2 The map guides you on foot to each place, with distance, time and warning of "you have arrived".
  3. 3 Watch the site and solve the challenge. GPS checks that you're really there — looking is the only help you need.
  4. 4 Add points, chain combos and end up with your summary and collage of photos to share.

Alone or as a team

The 90 min and 24 h sessions are played individually or in team mode (up to 6 people with one mobile per team) — each mode with its price. Are you more? Several teams, and to compete with each other.

Map: 2D, 3D and Real

Light 2D map by default, 3D camera view following your path and, in selected cities, Real mode: 3D photorealist built with LiDAR data. The game chooses only the best for your mobile.

10 types of challenge

Multiple choice, true/false, free answer, fill in the gap, creative photo, timeline, match, point on the map, choose the right image and texts to read calmly in front of the place. And if you get stuck, each challenge has up to 3 clues.

It was in 711 when the Berbers landed in Al-Yazira al-Jadra, the 'Green Island', founding one of the first Islamic cities on the peninsula. Today, Algeciras is Europe's gateway to the Strait, a crossroads where every footprint is history and every glance a challenge. Investigate the remains of the Murallas Meriníes, silent witnesses to sieges and reconquests. Discover the history that beats beneath the Capilla de Nuestra Sra. de Europa, where the currents of the Strait bring echoes of ancient sailors. Stroll through the Huerta del Carmen and feel the imprint of time. Every corner is a puzzle to solve, a clue for your cultural mission. Conquer the Fuente de los Burros and unveil its origin, or the Fuerte del Tolmo, a forgotten stronghold with secrets to discover. Explore the Parque Natural del Estrecho, where nature and history merge in an untamed landscape. Solve the mysteries held by the Plaza de Toros Monumental La Paloma and explore the Edificio Cubo de la Música, a beacon of modern culture. Algeciras challenges you with cultural points of interest and challenges awaiting you. Are you ready to unearth the secrets of the city that was the first gateway to Al-Ándalus?
