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.

Zurich

Switzerland

📍 31 Points of interest 🧩 87 Challenges 🌐 9 languages

Deep within Zurich, where the Limmat River kisses the lake, the old city hides the foundations of Turicum, the Roman outpost that forged this metropolis over two millennia ago. Here, the Protestant Reformation found its most powerful voice with Huldrych Zwingli, and every cobblestone on the street vibrates with the echo of ideological battles and cultural revolutions that changed Europe. Prepare to decipher the codes of a city that reinvented itself again and again, from its lakeside origins to its current avant-garde brilliance. Cross the threshold of the Kunsthaus, where contemporary art challenges your perception and pictorial history envelops you. Unravel the secrets of Villa Patumbah, an architectural gem that will transport you to another era, or seek the enigma of the Pavillion Le Corbusier, an explosion of color and form that defies convention. Every corner of Zurich is a portal to an adventure, an architectural puzzle, or a historical footprint waiting to be revealed. Do you dare to follow the trail of the ancient Romans or the revolutionaries of the Reformation? Investigate the nooks of the Old City, where every alley whispers stories. Discover the majesty of the Opernhaus Zürich, a cultural temple that beats in the heart of the city. Conquer the paths surrounding Zürich–Enge Alpenquai, where prehistory emerges with every step. Zurich awaits you with cultural points of interest and nearly 2,464 challenges. Are you ready to become the master cultural detective of the Alps?
