In City Conquest the centre of Tournai becomes a game board for your whole group: at least two teams race to conquer zones, and other teams can win them back. On the way you pass places like Place Walter Ravez, Beffroi de Tournai, and Princesse Despinoy. When time is up, the team with the most points wins; with equal points, the team with the most ducats wins.

How to play
1Explore
Walk through the real city. The map shows every zone:
free, 
taken by a team in its colour, or 
locked for a few minutes. The game starts at 
.
2Conquer
Step into a zone and open its task: a puzzle, a riddle, something to count or a code to crack on the spot, now and then a photo. Get it right and the zone takes your colour
, and you earn 30 ducats 
.
3Defend and take back
Other teams can take your zones once the lock
is over, and you can take theirs. A zone 
stays with the team that conquers it. The first team at a bonus spot 
gets a power-up in its backpack 
.
4Final count
When the time is up, the team with the most points wins; with equal points, the most ducats
. Be at the meeting point 
in time: the herald calls everyone together.
Every zone has ten tasks about what you can really find there. Each team gets a different one, and a new one every time it comes back, so answers can't be passed on.
20 factions
Every zone has a field that fits the place: knowledge at a library, creativity at a museum, charm on a market square, speed on a bridge or quay, power at a fortress or tower. The stronger your faction is in a zone's field, the more points that zone is worth to you, so every faction has its own zones to go for.

Ducats, chests and drops
Chests
Every 20 minutes the herald hides chests 
in the streets. The first team within 30 m opens one: ducats , a potion, a defence or something to leave for others.
The merchant
You start with 50 ducats and earn more by conquering, holding zones and approved photos. Spend them at the merchant 
: you can buy anywhere, and at his spot you get 20% off.
Drops and fog
Leave a bomb, trap, fog, curse or sabotage on the street 
. Only your team sees it; the team that walks into it is hit. Fog 
hides their map beyond 100 m. A scout 
shows drops near you 
: walk to one to defuse it.

ScoutShows other teams' drops within 100 m for 2 minutes; walk to one to defuse it.- BombLeave it on the street: the team that walks into it loses 25 points.
TrapLeave it on the street: 3 minutes no conquering and no answering.
FogLeave it on the street: for 4 minutes their map shows only 100 m around them.
CurseLeave it on the street: on their next 2 questions a wrong answer costs double.
SabotageLeave it on the street: steals one thing from their backpack (or 30 ducats).

Two ways to play
Without a game master
You play on your own. The organiser opens the game master page, chooses the default language and the playing time, and starts the game. From then on everything runs by itself on every phone: the zones, the chests, the merchant and the final count.
€19.95 per team
Book and payOften chosen by companiesWith a game master
Someone leads the game from the game master page: follows every team live with its points and zones, sends messages to all teams, adds 15 minutes or stops the game, gives a team a power-up or puts a chest right next to it, and looks at the photos. The game master never sees the answers.
€199.00 including 5 teams, €19.95 per extra team
Book and payThe organiser sets up the game on the game master page (the default language and the playing time) and starts it for all teams.
Every player can pick and switch the language on their own phone.
What the game master sees
Live, on a laptop or tablet: where every team is, who holds which zone, and each team's points, ducats and items. From here the game master gives or takes points, sends a message to one team or to all teams, adds 15 minutes or pauses the game.
What happens in City Conquest?
City Conquest is a competitive city game in which at least two teams try to conquer the most zones in Tournai. Each team has 1 to 4 players and plays on its own phone.
Every team starts by picking a faction, a group with its own story, strengths and characters. From then on it is about tactics. Reach a zone, solve its task and it counts for your team. Another team can still win it back, so think about which zones are worth defending and which are worth a raid. Nobody knows who has won until the playing time is over.
Where in Tournai do you play?
The board is the streets of Tournai and the sights on our routes. You walk past the Pont des Trous, see the Museum of Fine Arts, cross the Grand-Place and reach the Église Saint-Jacques.
Zones are scattered across the city, so each team decides on its own route. Some teams rush for the nearest zone, others wait for a chance to take one back. Either way, you discover Tournai on foot while playing against the other teams in your group.
Who runs the game?
The person who books is the organiser. Using the game master page, the organiser sets the default language and the playing time and starts the game for all teams together.
Every player can pick the language on their own phone and switch it at any time. That is handy for families with visitors from abroad, international teams or school friends meeting up again. Divide into teams beforehand so every team has a phone ready at the start.
What you can book in Tournai today
To play today, book the Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Tournai. Your team follows a detective case on foot through the city, at your own pace.
It takes 1.5 to 2 hours and costs €19.95 per team, with one phone and at most 4 players. Start whenever you want, any day. With a larger group, book several teams and see who solves the case first. Each team sets its own pace and takes breaks whenever it likes.
Do we need a game master?
No. Without a game master you play completely on your own: the person who booked opens the organiser page once, picks the default language and play time and starts the game for all teams; after that everything runs by itself on every phone. A game master (€199.00 incl. 5 teams) is optional, for someone who wants to follow and steer the game live.
Can teams start the game themselves?
You do not need a game master for that: the person who booked starts the game once for all teams on the organiser page, so every team plays the same time. After that everything runs by itself on every phone. A game master is optional, for someone who wants to follow and steer the game live.
Who wins City Conquest?
When time is up, the team with the most points wins; with equal points, the team with the most ducats wins.
What is the minimum number of teams?
Two. Each team has 1 to 4 players and plays on its own phone.
How does a team conquer a zone?
Walk to the zone on the map and solve the task there. Other teams can conquer it back later.
Who decides how long the group game lasts?
The organiser sets the playing time on the game master page and starts the game for all teams.
Can players use different languages?
Yes. Each player chooses and switches the language on their own phone.
