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 the 12th century, the first university in the English-speaking world laid its foundations here, transforming an Anglo-Saxon town into the epicenter of knowledge. A thousand years later, every cobblestone in Oxford resonates with the footsteps of giants, and its walls hold enigmas that defy time. Cross the threshold of a Merton Chapel, where history whispers from stained-glass windows that have witnessed centuries of geniuses. Investigate the 'Alice Door,' a portal to a world of wonders that inspired Lewis Carroll and still hides its secrets. Discover the corners of University Park, a sanctuary of knowledge where every tree could have witnessed a world-changing discovery. What secret formulas were concocted in the halls of St Hugh's College Main Building? What legendary discussions were forged in the warmth of the Lamb and Flag, the tavern that saw revolutionary ideas born? Explore the Grandpont causeway Section, a path that connects you with millennia of history. Conquer the Darwin Exhibition and feel the pulse of evolution beneath your feet. Solve the mystery of the Memorial 300 yards south of Osney Lock, a point on the map that marks a milestone. Oxford challenges you with cultural points of interest and challenges awaiting you. Every step earns XP, every correct answer brings you closer to the next level. Are you ready to decipher the code of intelligence?
