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.

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 City Conquest work?

In City Conquest, teams compete for zones across Murcia by solving the task in each zone, and the highest score at the end wins. Every team first chooses a faction, a group with its own story, strengths and characters.

Once the game is running, your team plans its own route. Reach a zone, solve its task and it is yours. Then watch out, because another team can win it back the same way. Some teams defend hard, others keep moving to grab new ground. Both can work.

Where in Murcia do teams battle for zones?

The streets and sights on our Murcia routes form the board for this group game. Teams can pass Murcia Cathedral, the Real Casino de Murcia, Plaza de Santo Domingo and the Romea Theatre as they chase zones.

A group game in Murcia played like this gets everyone walking, looking and talking tactics. You might see a rival team at the other end of a square and change plans on the spot. One player reads the map, another solves the task, someone else keeps an eye on the competition.

What does the organiser set up?

The organiser, the main booker, prepares City Conquest on the game master page by choosing the default language and the playing time, then starts the game for all teams.

The game only begins when the organiser starts it, which keeps every team on the same clock. Each player can pick and switch the language on their own phone, so a group with different languages can still play together without anyone being left behind.

Which Murcia game can you book today?

Secrets of Murcia can be booked today. You help Francisco Salzillo recover his lost chisel, the delicate tool that gives life to wood and devotion to art, and on the way you see Murcia Cathedral and Plaza de las Flores.

You play in the browser on your own phone, no app needed. It costs €19.95 per team: one phone, at most 4 players, and takes 1.5–2 hours. Start whenever you like, every day; the game is valid for 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.

Does every team need its own phone?

Yes. In City Conquest each team of 1 to 4 players plays on its own phone.

Can a zone change hands?

Yes. Another team can solve the task in your zone and win it back.

Do I need an app for Secrets of Murcia?

No. Secrets of Murcia runs in the browser on your own phone, so no app is needed.

What does Secrets of Murcia cost?

It costs €19.95 per team: one phone, at most 4 players.
