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.

Ferrara

Italia

📍 24 Points of interest 🧩 70 Challenges 🌐 9 languages

In 1492, the city of Ferrara dared to dream beyond its walls. Biagio Rossetti expanded it with a revolutionary urban plan, the Addizione Erculea, which today remains a masterpiece of Renaissance planning. A thousand years before, and a thousand years after, its streets hold secrets waiting to be unearthed by GeoCats. Tread the same cobblestones as the Este family, whose court transformed this city into an unparalleled center of art and culture. Every corner whispers tales of intrigue, passion, and power. Cross the Via delle Volte, a medieval labyrinth of arches and passageways that transports you to another era. Investigate the walls of the Palazzo Strozzi Bevilacqua; what mysteries does its opulence conceal? Discover the audacity of defensive engineering at the Porta di S. Benedetto, a fortress that has guarded the city for centuries. Ferrara is not just a city; it's a giant game board where every building, every square, every corner is a clue. Explore the Padiglione d'Arte Contemporanea and feel how the past and present collide in a creative explosion. Conquer the secrets hidden in the Chiesa di San Michele Arcangelo. Solve the enigmas behind the facades of the Palazzo Mazza or the Palazzo Marocelli, silent witnesses to golden eras. Ferrara awaits you with cultural points of interest and nearly 1,384 challenges ready to be solved. Are you ready to decipher every message the city has kept for you?
