This activity turns Paris into a giant game board! Equipped with a tablet, you’ll search for clues and solve challenges in order to earn points. It’s the perfect activity to do with family and friends!
Each game (lasting from 2 to 2.5 hours) will take you on a fun exploration of 7 different Parisian neighborhoods.
There are 3 phases to the game: the briefing phase (15 minutes); the game phase (1.5 to 2 hours); and the debriefing phase (15 minutes).
The duration of the game phase can be adjusted depending on how long you’d like to play.
Participants are divided into teams. Each team receives a tablet that carries a map of the game with different icons corresponding to different types of challenges (see example in the photos circulating above).
Teams are geo-localized, and in order to unlock and solve a challenge the team must be within 20 meters of the icon indicated on the map.
Here are some examples of challenges within the game: take funny videos, recreate dances, answer a quiz, discover unusual anecdotes about the area’s history, find the point of view of historical photos and postcards, etc.
Arrive a few minutes early so we can get to know each other!
Wear comfortable, closed shoes (avoid flip-flops and high heels) and don’t forget to bring a camera and sunscreen.
After the briefing phase (during which we’ll explain how to operate the tablet), each team will begin to explore the neighborhood, looking for clues and earning points.
In order to optimize everyone’s experience we recommend that teams are made up of no more than 5 people each.
The starting point for the game is different for each team. This allows each team’s experience to be unique (teams do not complete the exact same course).
A member of the Wheels and Ways team will be present to deliver the tablets and brief you on their use, as well as to collect them again at the end of the game. He/she will also be able to answer any questions that you have before, during, and after the game.
