Frequently asked questions

Is this a self-guided walking route through Palma?
Yes. You play it on your phone, and the app leads you from building to building, tells the story of each place and sets a puzzle in what is in front of you. There is no guide and no group to join, and you can start whenever you like.
Does the route include Can Forteza Rey and Casa de les Mitges?
Yes, both are stops. Casa de les Mitges comes just after Olivera de Cort, followed by Can Forteza Rey, then El Aguila, Can Barceló and Can Alcover. Each stop comes with its own story and a puzzle based on the building in front of you.
Where does it start and finish, and how long does it take?
It starts at the Gran Hotel and finishes at Memories, after a stop at the Cathedral of Santa María. It is not a loop. The walk covers about 2.5 km, and most players take around an hour and 40 minutes, including the puzzles.
Is it free, and can we play as a group?
It is free to play, so friends, couples or families can walk it together. The story follows the artist Jordi as he tries to finish an architectural sketch, win a commission and impress Margarita, with puzzles set at a medium difficulty level.
Do we need to book a time, and can we pause?
No booking is needed. Start any time, and pause and continue later if you want a coffee or a break from the heat. Bring a fully charged phone or a power bank, and pack a hat, sunscreen and enough water, as the route is outdoors.
