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.

📍 14 Points of interest 🧩 40 Challenges 🌐 9 languages

In 1120, a city sprouted at the foot of the Black Forest, where today a gargoyle from Freiburg Cathedral defies the sky with an irreverent moon. This is the city that saw the birth of printing before Gutenberg, and every alley, every square, vibrates with centuries of stored stories. Prepare for an immersion where past and future intertwine beneath your feet. Are you ready to unearth its secrets? Cross the Schwabentor, a gate that has witnessed the city's evolution since the Middle Ages. Investigate the mysteries held by the Gerichtslaube, the old courthouse, where every stone could whisper a forgotten verdict. Discover the tiny boats that navigate Freiburg's canals, a system of waterways that has refreshed the city for centuries, an aquatic challenge awaiting you at every corner. Explore the majestic Münsterplatz, the city's beating heart, and let yourself be carried away by the atmosphere emanating from Our Lady Cathedral, whose silhouette dominates the horizon and whose gargoyles watch you from above. Explore the Historic Center, where every cobblestone is a portal to a different era. Conquer the Colombischlössle, an architectural gem that invites you to decipher its aristocratic past. Solve the enigmas hidden in the Rathausplatz, the town hall square, the epicenter of civic life. Freiburg offers you points of interest and challenges. Every step earns XP, every correct answer brings you closer to the truth. Can you feel the call of adventure?
