In City Conquest the centre of Zaragoza 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 Zaragoza, Plaza de Nuestra Señora del Pilar, and Capilla de San Pascual Bailón. 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.

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 do teams compete in City Conquest?

Each team starts by choosing a faction: a group with its own story, strengths and characters. That faction is who you play as for the rest of the game.

The map of Zaragoza shows zones. Walk to a zone, solve its task and you hold it. But any rival team can win it back, so you keep deciding where to go next: defend a zone you already have, or go after one that belongs to someone else. When the playing time ends, the team with the most points wins.

Which streets and sights in Zaragoza form the board?

The game board is made of the streets and sights on our Zaragoza routes. On the way between zones you may walk through Parque Grande José Antonio Labordeta, cross the Stone Bridge Zaragoza, pass the Goya Museum or reach the Pablo Gargallo Museum just ahead of another team.

Each team plans its own route. Some will split up the work, others will stick together and race from zone to zone. Either way, no two games follow the same path through the city.

What does the organiser need to do?

The organiser, the person who makes the main booking, sets up the game on the game master page. You choose the default language and the playing time there, and then start the game for all teams at once. The game does not start without the organiser.

Every player can then pick and switch the language on their own phone. That makes a group game in Zaragoza easy for international colleagues, a group of friends or a family where not everyone speaks the same language.

Which game can you play in Zaragoza today?

It takes 1.5–2 hours and costs €19.95 per team: one phone, at most 4 players. You play with the free Loquiz app and start whenever you like. Friends, families and colleagues each play as one team on one phone.

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 can join City Conquest?

You need at least 2 teams. Each team has 1 to 4 players and uses its own phone.

How do you take a zone?

Can each player use another language?
