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.

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 makes City Conquest a group game?

City Conquest is built for groups: several teams play against each other at the same time, each trying to conquer more zones than the rest. You need at least two teams of 1 to 4 players, and each team plays on its own phone.

At the start, every team picks a faction with its own story, strengths and characters. Then the competition begins. Do you chase new zones, guard the ones you hold, or try to win back what you lost? The score shifts as zones change hands, and only the points at the end count.

Which places in Norrkoping form the board?

The streets of Norrkoping and the sights on our routes form the board for this group game. On the way you may see Sankt Olai, Norrköping’s City Library and the Kyrkan vid Vasaparken.

Teams spread out across the map and cross paths where zones lie close together. You may arrive at a zone just as another team does, or find a zone you took has already been won back. Keep talking as a team, share the tasks, and keep the map open on your phone.

How does the organiser start City Conquest?

The organiser, the main booker, sets up the group game Norrkoping on the game master page. They choose the default language and the playing time and then start the game for every team at once.

Each player can pick their own language on their phone and switch it whenever they want. That makes it easy for friends, families and colleagues with different languages to play the same game.

What can you play in Norrkoping today?

Secrets of Norrkoping can be booked today. You wander past roaring rivers and red-brick buildings as you help Johann III reclaim the Lost Keystone. The game runs in the browser on your own phone, no app needed.

It takes 1.5 to 2 hours and costs €19.95 per team: one phone, at most 4 players. You start whenever you like, and a bigger group can play as several teams side by side.

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 does a team conquer a zone?

By walking to the zone and solving the task there. Other teams can win the zone back the same way.

How many people can play?

At least two teams take part, each with 1 to 4 players on its own phone.

Who chooses the language and playing time?

The organiser sets both on the game master page. Each player can still switch the language on their own phone.

Do I need an app for Secrets of Norrkoping?

No. Secrets of Norrkoping runs in the browser on your own phone. It costs €19.95 per team: one phone, at most 4 players.
