Race Through Larnaca
Expected soon in Larnaca
A city game where teams play against each other: at least 2 teams of 1–4 players, each team on its own phone.
- 2–20 teams
In City Conquest the centre of Larnaca becomes a game board for your whole group: at least two teams race to conquer zones, and other teams can win them back. 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.
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.
Speed potionWait times and zone locks halved for 10 minutes.
Wisdom potionRemoves one wrong answer from your next multiple-choice question.
Strength potionYour next conquest scores double.
ShieldBlocks the next attack on your team (20 seconds to react).
MirrorSends the next attack straight back to the team that left it.
AntidoteEnds fog, a trap or a curse at once.
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.
Often 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
The 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.
How does City Conquest play?
City Conquest is a city game in which at least two teams compete for zones across Larnaca. Each team has 1 to 4 players and plays on its own phone.
At the start, every team picks a faction: a group with its own story, its own strengths and its own characters. Then you walk to a zone, solve the task there and claim it for your team. Other teams can conquer it back, so the score keeps moving. You will need to agree as a team on when to chase new zones and when to protect the ones you already hold.
From the seafront to the old churches: the board
The board is the streets of Larnaca and the sights on our routes. You walk past the Pierides Museum, along Finikoudes Beach, up to the Larnaka Medieval Fort and on to the Holy Church of Saint Lazarus.
Zones are spread across the centre, so each team chooses its own route. Will you take the zone by the beach, or go after one another team has just captured? Every choice changes the game, and you see a good part of Larnaca on foot as you play.
The organiser starts the game
Whoever books is the organiser. On the game master page, the organiser picks the default language and the playing time and starts the game for all teams at the same time.
Every player can choose the language on their own phone and switch it at any time. That makes it simple for mixed groups, like holiday friends from different countries or international colleagues. Split into teams before you begin so each phone is ready the moment the game starts.
