By the end of a mission in Barcelona, you will know exactly who on your team can keep a secret. Plan your next surprise party accordingly. In plain terms: a 2.5-hour team spy game on foot, played on your phones.
Plaça d'Urquinaona was created in 1857 after the demolition of the bastions that previously stood on the site. Along the way, Barcelona shows you a slice of its history and the places where locals gather.
Most city activities are about the sights; this one is about the people you play with. Specifically, watching them try to act casual in public.
Some missions need a sharp eye, some need a little nerve, and some need everyone talking at once. No puzzle skills required, just a sense of humor. There may be a double agent on your team. There may not.
Wear the comfortable shoes, not the stylish ones: this is a proper 3.1 km on foot, with 4 stops over about 2.5 hours.
Afterwards, the surprise-party planning committee has a shortlist, and one teammate is never being told anything again.
Who it's for:
- Friends, couples and families with teens: finally, a day out with more to talk about than where to eat.
- Solo travelers: book just for you and play Solo Mode, the version of the game made for one player. Nobody can outvote you.
- Private groups: bachelor and bachelorette parties, girls' weekends, boys' trips, wedding parties, work teams and active over-55s. Pick the day; we will handle the intrigue.
Book a private game for 1 to 8 players on a date you choose; a team of one works too. Teams are up to 8 players. A bigger booking plays as several teams of up to 8, formed at the meeting point.
What to expect
Turn up at Plaça d'Urquinaona by your departure time. Meet at the corner of Plaça d'Urquinaona and Ronda de Sant Pere, at the edge of Plaça d'Urquinaona. Your mission starts on your phones there and leads your team to 4 stops over about 3.1 km on foot, finishing at the last stop about 2.5 hours later. Only the meeting point is shared in advance; the rest is revealed as you play.
- At Plaça d'Urquinaona, open your quest link and tap I'M HERE (it unlocks 15 minutes before the start). You play short solo warm-up missions there while everyone arrives, and teams form 30 minutes after the start time. A private group can start together as soon as everyone has checked in
- Running late? Come anyway. Teams form 30 minutes after the start time. If you get there later, tap I'M HERE when you arrive and the app adds you to a team that still has room (your own group's, if you booked together), or to the solo game if every team is full
- Bring a charged phone for each player, with mobile data; a power bank helps
- About 3.1 km of walking; wear comfortable shoes
- Outdoors in typical weather; if conditions turn unsafe, we reschedule you or refund you
- The challenges suit teens and adults; younger players are welcome with grown-ups on the team
- The walk between stops follows step-free mapped paths, and no stop is marked as inaccessible. Kerbs and paving are not checked on the ground, so contact us if you need full step-free access.
