On the way you pass places like Mercat des Peix, Mediterrània, and Església de Santa Maria. 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.

16 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.

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.

What kind of game is City Conquest?

City Conquest is a competitive city game in which teams try to win zones in Menorca's streets, and the team with the most points when time is up wins. Before the start, each team chooses a faction, a group with its own story, strengths and characters.

You claim a zone by reaching it and solving the task waiting there. That zone can still be lost: a rival team can arrive, solve the task and win it back. So you keep deciding as a team whether to protect what you hold or set off for new zones.

Which streets and sights form the board in Ciutadella?

The streets and sights on our Menorca routes are the board for this group game. Teams can pass the Bastió de sa Font, the Teatre des Born, Plaça nova and Plaça des Born as they move between zones.

Playing a group game in Menorca like this means you see the old streets while you compete. You may spot another team across a square, guess their next zone and try to get there first. It suits friends on holiday, families and colleagues who want an outing with some friendly rivalry.

How does the organiser start the game?

The organiser, the main booker, sets up City Conquest on the game master page and starts it for all teams. There you choose the default language and the playing time.

Teams cannot start on their own; the game begins when the organiser starts it, so everybody plays on the same clock. Each player can pick and switch the language on their own phone. That is handy for international groups, where people prefer to read the tasks in different languages.

Which game can you book in Menorca today?

The Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Menorca can be booked today. You solve a detective murder mystery on foot through Ciutadella de Menorca, from Plaça des Born to the cathedral and the old harbour, with the free Loquiz app.

It costs €19.95 per team: one phone, at most 4 players, and takes 1.5–2 hours. You can start whenever you like, every day, and the game stays valid for 12 months, so it fits easily into a holiday.

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?

City Conquest needs at least two teams. Each team has 1 to 4 players and its own phone.

What is a faction?

A faction is the group your team plays as, with its own story, strengths and characters.

Can players read the game in their own language?

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

Who decides when the game starts and ends?

The organiser sets the playing time on the game master page and starts the game for all teams.
