Switzerland · SCAVENGER HUNTS AND CITY GAMES

Solve zombie-themed clues through Geneva’s old town, parks, monuments, and flower clock in a flexible offline city game.
“Had a lot of fun following the mapped locations to see some wonderful views of Geneva. Most of the riddles/games were a bit childish/easy (or obscurely worded and difficult), but quite fun nonetheless. It’s a nice way to view the city and have a walking tour path with a bit of fun. Highly recommend. It would be awesome to see a more advanced version with fun riddles for adults.”
