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.

📍 32 Points of interest 🧩 76 Challenges 🌐 9 languages

In 1777, José Joaquín Moraga founded California's first civilian settlement here, far from colonial confines. Today, San Jose challenges you to chart your own path in this cradle of innovation. Don't just explore; discover the legacy woven between its agrarian past and technological future. Delve into the enigmatic Winchester Mystery House, a mansion that expanded endlessly, labyrinthine, to confuse the spirits that inhabited it. Cross its hallways, investigate its doors that lead nowhere, and its staircases that end at the ceiling. Then, anchor your mind in the vibrant collection of the San Jose Museum Of Art, where contemporary art challenges perception. Will you be able to decipher the hidden intentions of each work? Tour the historic Ruins of the Bayside Cannery, an industrial echo of a golden age that still resonates in the city's architecture and spirit. Conquer the heart of The Center of Santa Clara Valley, where history meets modernity at every turn. Solve the mysteries held by the Peralta Adobe, the last vestige of 18th-century Californian architecture, and find your way in Monopoly in the Park, a giant board that transforms the game into an urban adventure. San Jose awaits you with cultural points of interest and challenges. Each enigma solved brings you closer to unveiling the soul of the Capital of Silicon Valley. Are you ready for the challenge?
