Questions about this template

Can I use my own city and checkpoints?
Yes. Replace each checkpoint with any real place, set how close players must get, and rewrite the clues and reveals. A park, a campus or an old town works as well as Paris.
What do players need?
A phone with a browser and location turned on: the browser asks for permission when a checkpoint is checked. No app and no account are needed.
Can players cheat from the sofa?
Not easily. A step opens only when the phone reports a position inside the radius you set, 250 metres for the first checkpoint here, so teams really have to walk there.
Is this template free?
Playing it and editing it in the builder are free for everyone. Publishing it with its paid options needs an Event Pass or Pro; remove them at Publish and it goes live on the free plan, for good.
Can I change the answers and the texts?
Yes. Every code, clue, hint and reward opens in the builder, and nothing is saved until you publish.
What do players need?
A phone or a computer with a browser. They open your link or scan your QR code, and never create an account.
How long does it take to play?
About 60 minutes, from the first lock to the reward.
