In City Conquest the centre of Cádiz 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 Ayuntamiento de Cádiz, Plaza de San Juan de Dios, and Casa Lasquetty. 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 happens in City Conquest?
City Conquest is a group game in which teams of 1 to 4 players compete for zones in Cadiz, and the team with the most points at the end wins.
Before the start, each team picks a faction: a group with its own story, strengths and characters. Then you set out. Each zone on the map has a task. Solve it and the zone is yours. Another team can take it back, which keeps the score moving and the game tense right up to the final minute.
Where in Cadiz do you play?
The streets of Cadiz and the sights on our routes form the game board. You play around Plaza de la Catedral, the Catedral de Cádiz and Plaza de San Juan de Dios, with the lanes of the Barrio del Pópulo close by.
The Gran Teatro Falla, Plaza Topete, the Pasaje Arco de la Rosa and the Parque Genovés are part of the area too. In the narrow streets of the old town, the quickest route is not always obvious, so keep the map in view and agree as a team where to go next.
How is the group game set up?
The organiser, the person who books the group game in Cadiz, sets it up on the game master page and starts it for all teams. There you choose the default language and the playing time.
Each player can still choose a language on their own phone and switch it during play. That works well for friends, colleagues or families who don't all share a language.
Which games can you book in Cadiz today?
In Cadiz you can book three games today and start whenever you like, every day. Secrets of Cadiz runs in the browser on your own phone, no app needed, and takes you past the Balneario de la Palma and the Parque Genovés as you help Paco Alba recover the lost copla.
Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Cadiz starts by the Catedral de Cádiz and passes the Gran Teatro Falla. The Cadiz Syndicate (outdoor escape game) runs from Plaza Topete to Plaza de la Catedral. Each game takes 1.5 to 2 hours and costs €19.95 per team: one phone, at most 4 players, or 5 for The Syndicate.
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?
At least 2 teams, each with 1 to 4 players and its own phone.
What is a faction?
A group with its own story, strengths and characters. Each team picks one at the start.
Can we lose a zone?
Yes. Another team can win it back by solving the task at that zone.
Does Secrets of Cadiz need an app?
No. Secrets of Cadiz runs in the browser on your own phone.
