In City Conquest the centre of Bergen 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 Torgallmenningen, Den blå steinen, and Bergen tinghus. 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 and how do you win?
City Conquest is a team-against-team game in which you win by holding the most zones on the map of Bergen when the playing time ends. Each zone has a task, and solving it makes the zone yours.
But the other teams can do the same. If they reach your zone and solve the task, it switches sides. So you plan while you walk: defend a zone, chase a new one or win back what you lost. Each faction has its own story, strengths and characters, which gives every team a different way to play.
Which Bergen sights are on the game board?
The game board is central Bergen, around the sights from our city routes. On the way to a zone you may cross Vågsallmenningen, pass Bergen Cathedral or end up at the bottom station of Fløibanen.
Korskirken, Finnegården and the water at Lille Lungegårdsvannet are on our routes as well. With the harbour, the old streets and the hillside close together, there is plenty of room for tactics. Bring a rain jacket, wear good shoes and charge your phones before you start.
How does the organiser run City Conquest?
The organiser, the person who booked, runs City Conquest from the game master page: they set the default language and the playing time, and start the game for all teams at the same moment.
The game cannot start any other way, so agree on the organiser before you meet. Once it is running, every player can pick and switch the language on their own phone. That helps for cruise groups, colleagues on a trip and friends or family with guests from abroad.
Which games in Bergen can you book today?
Two City Game games in Bergen can be booked today, each for €19.95 per team and taking 1.5–2 hours. You start whenever you like.
Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Bergen is a detective case on foot from the Ludvig Holberg statue along Bryggen to Bergenhus Fortress. In The Bergen Syndicate (outdoor escape game) you chase Magnus and the stolen formulas from Vågsallmenningen past the Domkirke to the wooden fronts of Bryggen, with up to 5 players per team. Both suit a group game Bergen with a single 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 teams do you need for City Conquest in Bergen?
At least two teams. Each team has 1 to 4 players and plays on its own phone.
Can another team take our zone?
Yes. If another team solves the task in your zone, it becomes theirs. You can win it back the same way.
Who starts the game?
The organiser starts City Conquest for all teams from the game master page, after choosing the default language and the playing time.
Can players choose different languages?
Yes. Every player can pick and switch the language on their own phone.
What do the other Bergen games cost?
Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Bergen and The Bergen Syndicate (outdoor escape game) each cost €19.95 per team and take 1.5–2 hours.
