"City Code" turns a city walk into a mini-adventure.
You see a fragment of a landmark on the map—a piece of stucco, a bas-relief, a sign, a monument, a fence, or a fountain. Your task: find out what it is, get there, and take a photo of it. The app will verify that you're actually there and count your find.
This isn't a guidebook for people to watch from the couch—it's a reason to get out of the house, explore favorite and new routes, and discover a city you usually pass by without noticing.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Open your city map and choose a puzzle.
2. Go to the place you recognized from the fragment.
3. Take a photo of the landmark—we'll confirm its location and the landmark itself.
