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 79 AD, the Romans founded Mamucium, a fortress that marked the birth of a city destined to challenge the world. From that very spot, you'll tread the same stones that witnessed the dawn of the Industrial Revolution, transforming Manchester into the planet's first industrialized city. Here, history isn't just in books; it's etched in steel, brick, and ingenuity. Investigate the remnants of Manchester Castle, a medieval echo hidden beneath the modern metropolis. Discover the exact spot where Rolls met Royce, an encounter that redefined luxury on wheels. Explore the Store Street Aqueduct, a marvel of Victorian engineering that still defies the passage of time. Every corner tells a feat, every building is a challenge awaiting you. Conquer the Beetham Tower, the Hilton Tower, and observe the city that forged its own destiny. Solve the enigmas hidden within The Lowry, a cultural beacon in the Docklands. Follow the trail of 'Journey' through time and art, and don't forget to find the eccentric A Monument to Vimto. Manchester boasts cultural points of interest and nearly 1,200 challenges awaiting you.
