Rousseau's island, a wall of reformers and the highest fountain in Europe next door — Geneva thinks big for a small city.
This app-led scavenger hunt takes you through Geneva on foot, using phone-based riddles to guide you from one landmark to the next. No guide, no fixed start time.
• Cross to the Île Rousseau and greet its pensive philosopher
• Climb to the Cathédrale Saint-Pierre, Calvin's austere stronghold
• Measure yourself against the giants of the Mur des Réformateurs
Available in 24 languages including English, French, German, Spanish, Italian — see the full list when booking and choose yours when you start the game in the app.
Around 2 hours - any group size.
International by treaty, competitive by nature.

What to expect
The Île Rousseau floats first into view, its statue of the philosopher gazing over the Rhône. Riddles ask what Geneva's most famous son actually thought of Geneva.
Up in the old town, the Cathédrale Saint-Pierre holds Calvin's plain wooden chair and 157 tower steps with a view worth every one. Trivia handles the Reformation politics.
Then the Mur des Réformateurs stretches its hundred metres of stern stone faces across the Parc des Bastions — post tenebras lux.
Around two hours between lake and history. The final leaderboard is strictly neutral — the winning, less so.
