What to expect
After downloading the free app and entering your unique team code, you'll receive a game scenario and instructions. You'll navigate La Rochelle's centre on foot, stopping at specific locations to solve puzzles and gather clues that unlock the next stage. The game unfolds over roughly two hours—the pace is yours to set. You won't meet a guide; instead, the app feeds you riddles, challenges, and location hints. Between puzzles, you can photograph landmarks or record video evidence of your progress. It's a blend of sightseeing and problem-solving that keeps you moving through the city.
