Gouda gathers almost everything worth seeing around one square, which makes it ideal ground for a self-guided walking tour with puzzles. The game starts at Nieuwe Markt. At every stop your team works out an answer and then picks up something to know about the building in front of it. Along the way it plays like a scavenger hunt through Gouda, with something to find at every stop. One team is up to four players on a single phone, so families, friends and colleagues all fit the format, and covering the route by yourself is entirely possible. Larger groups become several teams and set out from the same square. There is no guide waiting and no fixed departure, so you can circle the Markt first and start when your team is ready. How to playYour first task in Gouda is only a few steps away. Book the Exploration Game Check the email with your play link Open the link on your phone Start playing whenever you like The route runs on riddles, questions about details you have to spot yourself, and photo tasks that put your team in the shot. Further along you reach Museum Gouda and the Lazaruspoortje beside it, and the questions there turn to how this part of town was used and who passed through it. Correct answers bring points and clues that matter once you reach the final puzzle. Two or more teams turn the walk into a competition, with the leaderboard keeping score, which is why the game works as a team building outing. You can break off for cheese and coffee and continue afterwards, finishing your loop through Gouda whenever you like.
