In City Conquest the centre of Münster 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 Historisches Rathaus, Freiherr-von-Vincke-Haus, and Dominikanerkirche. 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.
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.
€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 is City Conquest?
City Conquest is a game in which teams in Munster capture zones on the map and play for the most points. Each team begins by picking a faction: a group with its own story, its own strengths and its own characters.
During the game, your team walks to a zone and solves the task waiting there. That conquers the zone for you. But other teams can win it back, so you have to keep an eye on the map. You talk it through together: chase new zones or protect the ones you hold? When the playing time ends, the team with the most points wins.
Which sights in Munster are on the game board?
The board of this city game consists of the streets and sights on our routes through Munster. You pass the Überwasserkirche, the Kiepenkerl-Denkmal and Domplatz with the St.-Paulus-Dom.
The Historisches Rathaus, the St.-Lamberti-Kirche, the LWL-Museum für Kunst und Kultur and the Bischöfliches Priesterseminar Borromaeum are part of the playing area too. The old town is compact, so you switch between zones quickly and often cross paths with the other teams. You see a lot of Munster while your team plans its next step.
What does the organiser of the group game do?
The organiser is the person who makes the main booking and sets up the group game for all teams. On the game master page, the organiser chooses the default language and the playing time, then starts the game for everyone at once.
Each player can pick and switch the language on their own phone, though. That makes a group game Munster easy to share with colleagues, friends or family members who prefer different languages.
Which games are already available in Munster?
In Munster you can book three other games today. Secrets of Munster is an exploration game from Domplatz with puzzles and photo tasks in the old town.
Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Munster is a detective case through the old town, from the Überwasserkirche to St. Lamberti. In The Munster Syndicate (outdoor escape game) you track Magnus and the stolen formulas from Domplatz past the St.-Lamberti-Kirche. All three run in the free Loquiz app, take 1.5 to 2 hours and cost €19.95 per team.
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.
How many players can join City Conquest?
You play with at least 2 teams of 1 to 4 players each. Every team uses its own phone.
Can other teams take my zones?
Yes. Another team can win back a zone by solving the task there.
Who sets the playing time for the group game Munster?
The organiser chooses the playing time and default language on the game master page and starts the game for all teams.
Can I play in my own language?
Yes. Each player can pick and switch the language on their own phone.
What can I play in Munster today?
Secrets of Munster, Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Munster and The Munster Syndicate (outdoor escape game). They take 1.5 to 2 hours and cost €19.95 per team.
