Coimbra awaits! Explore its wonders on a scavenger hunt!

Solve riddles while visiting Coimbra's famous landmarks, including the University of Coimbra and the stunning Biblioteca Joanina, as you immerse yourself in the city's fascinating past!

An ideal outdoor activity for first time visitors, couples, groups, families, and children. Can be used as a great team-building activity.

Once you're in Santa Cruz Church download the app and use the maps integration to reach the attractions. (An internet connection is required)

At each stop, learn about the attraction and solve a location-based riddle that can only be solved if you reach the specific location. Use logic, imagination, observation and team spirit to unlock the correct code and reveal the next destination of the city sightseeing game.

Once you put in the correct code, the app will reveal the next destination and riddle to you. The puzzles are independent and not connected to each other through a story, so interact with the attractions and their exteriors to work out the answers.

Take the opportunity to snap some photos as you walk between locations, and pause the game whenever you want. Have a coffee, visit a museum, go for lunch, or even wait until another day — the game will be waiting for you.
