On the way you pass places like Piazza Quattro Novembre, Piazza Matteotti, and Chiesa di San Filippo Neri. When time is up, the team with the most points wins; with equal points, the team with the most ducats wins.

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.

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.

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

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

Book and pay

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 a round of City Conquest go?

You play with at least two teams of 1 to 4 players, and every team uses its own phone. Each team starts by picking a faction: a group with its own story, strengths and characters.

When the game starts, zones show up on the map. Reach a zone and solve the task to conquer it for your team. The other teams can come by later and solve the task to win it back. It is a constant tug of war across the city, with your team deciding where to go and when to return. Once the time is up, the team with the most points wins.

Where in Perugia do you play?

Perugia's streets and the sights on our routes are the board. You walk past places such as the Cattedrale San Lorenzo, the National Gallery, the Rocca Paolina and the Etruscan Well while you chase zones.

Because every team picks its own way, you see the centre from different angles and may bump into a rival team where you least expect it. This group game in Perugia fits student groups, colleagues, friends and families who enjoy walking and a little rivalry.

What is the organiser's role?

The main booker is the organiser. On the game master page they set the default language and the playing time, then start the game for all teams together.

During the game, every player can choose and switch the language on their own phone. So an international group, such as exchange students or visiting colleagues, can play the same game without anyone being left out.

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 smallest group that can play?

Two teams. A team can have 1 to 4 players, and each team needs its own phone.

What is a faction in City Conquest?

It is the group your team plays as, with its own story, strengths and characters. Each team picks one before the game starts.

How do you score points?

You conquer zones by solving the task at each zone. Other teams can win zones back, and the team with the most points when time is up wins.

Can every player use their own language?

Yes. The organiser sets a default language, and each player can switch it on their own phone.

Which game in Perugia can I book now?

Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Perugia, a detective game on foot that takes 1.5–2 hours. It costs €19.95 per team: one phone, at most 4 players.
