How to play

  1. 1

    Explore

    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 .

  2. 2

    Conquer

    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 .

  3. 3

    Defend 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 .

  4. 4

    Final 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.

  • 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 companies

With 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 do you play City Conquest?

City Conquest needs at least 2 teams, each with 1 to 4 players and its own phone. Before you set off, each team chooses a faction: a group with its own story, strengths and characters.

You then walk to zones on the map and solve the task at each one to conquer it. Rival teams can win a zone back, so you have to decide where to attack and what to defend. Points build up during the playing time. When the time is over, the team with the most points wins.

What do you see on the Naples game board?

The game board is made of the streets of Naples and the sights on our routes. Near the sea you pass Castel Nuovo, also called the Maschio Angioino, and Piazza Trieste e Trento with the Royal Palace of Naples and the Teatro di San Carlo.

The Galleria Umberto I and Gran Caffè Gambrinus are close by, while Piazza del Gesù, the Monastero di Santa Chiara and the Duomo di Napoli lie in the old centre. Zones are spread across this area. In this group game in Naples, your team keeps moving and deciding where to go next.

What does the organiser set up?

The organiser is the main booker. On the game master page they set the default language and the playing time, and then start the game for all teams at once. The game always begins with this step.

Every player can pick and switch the language on their own phone. So friends from different countries, or colleagues from an international office, can play one shared match while each reads the tasks in the language that suits them best.

Which games in Naples can you book today?

Two Naples games can be booked today. Secrets of Naples is a walk with puzzles and photo tasks past the Teatro di San Carlo and Castel Nuovo, played in the browser on your own phone, no app needed.

Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Naples leads from Piazza del Gesù through the old centre to the Duomo di Napoli and uses the free Loquiz app. Both take 1.5 to 2 hours and cost €19.95 per team: one phone, at most 4 players. Start whenever you like, every day, within 12 months.

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 teams are needed for City Conquest?

At least 2 teams, each with 1 to 4 players on its own phone.

Can we start the group game in Naples on our own?

No. The organiser who booked starts the game for all teams from the game master page.

Can each player use a different language?

Yes. Each player can pick and switch the language on their own phone.
