How to prepare for a city game?
5 practical tips for every player on how to prepare for a city game
City games are one of the most engaging forms of entertainment available in public spaces today. But to fully enjoy the adventure, it’s worth preparing well – especially if you’re playing for the first time. Below you’ll find a practical player’s checklist that will tell you how to prepare for a city game and help you avoid problems, making your city game pure pleasure.
1. Take care of your battery – both yours and your phone's
Most games last 1 to 2 hours, and some may extend if you stop for coffee, ice cream, or take many photos. Before the game:
charge your phone fully,
if you have one – bring a power bank,
close unnecessary background apps.
2. Check location access (GPS)
The Zu-CityGames app works based on location – you must be in the right place to unlock subsequent stages of the game. Before starting:
make sure your GPS is on,
allow the app to access your location “while using”.
3. Dress comfortably and appropriately for the weather
A game is not a trip to the mall – you’ll be walking through the city, sometimes on a busy street, sometimes uphill or through a park. Remember to wear:
comfortable shoes,
a rain jacket (if needed),
sunglasses and a hat.
4. Bring something to drink and a small snack
This is especially important if you’re playing with children or planning a game on a hot day. Water, a bar, maybe a sandwich – you never know when hunger will strike.
5. Play smart – and take photos!
A game is not a race – stop, look around, read descriptions, and admire the places we lead you through. Take photos – not just for Instagram, but also as a souvenir of a unique adventure.
Bonus tip:
You can play solo, but a city game is best enjoyed as a duo or a team. Join forces and embark on your mission!
