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.

In 1701, a visionary Frenchman named Antoine de la Mothe Cadillac planted the seed of a city where the river narrows, founding Fort Pontchartrain du Détroit. Three centuries later, that foundational tenacity still beats in every corner of Detroit, a metropolis that is reborn with every challenge. Investigate the echo of Art Deco in the Guardian Building Art Deco Lobby, where every detail is a clue. Feel the magnitude of history at Michigan Central Station, a colossus awaiting your exploration. Unravel the mystery of The Caryatids of Book Tower, stone figures guarding secrets from above. Delve into the universe of the MBAD African Bead Museum, where every bead tells an ancestral journey that you must follow. Cross the thresholds of the Detroit Masonic Temple and discover what rituals are hidden behind its imposing walls. Conquer the depths of the Detroit Salt Mine, an underground labyrinth that challenges you. Decipher urban art and resilience at the Heidelberg Project, an explosion of color and meaning. Wander the halls of the Renaissance Center, an emblem that redefines the skyline. Detroit offers you cultural points of interest and challenges waiting to be solved. Are you ready to write your own legend on the streets that forged the future?
