It’s freely inspired by popular series games squid game (squid game) That organizers of the small Montreal-based Walking Brain have imagined a new geocaching, which ends Sunday with its only performance in French. There may be others if the weather permits, which could present a great opportunity for Walking Brain to improve its French-speaking offering, which is currently very poor.
Identified using numbered cards reminiscent of those embroidered on the green jackets of the participants in the Korean series, players, assembled in teams, must be the first to solve six puzzles, threads strewn all over the Mount Royale. and La Fontaine Park.
“It’s a great way to get to know Montreal, as you can discover a lot of urban art there as well as visit some very beautiful places,” said Sheldon Sibersad, the Torontonian who lives temporarily in Montreal with whom we shared the game at the beginning of November. “We’ve taken part in architectural exploration bike tours and other guided walks, but this activity is definitely more in line with what’s popular at the moment,” continues the 25-year-old, who admits he was drawn to the topic Squid game.
The puzzles, mostly based on our mathematical logic, are cleverly directed around the games discussed in the Netflix series, with no unfortunate consequences if we fail – we get out alive! You can pick up where you left off by reloading the web app, but the excluded can’t get the $200 bonus awarded to the winning team – success rate is 65%. It’s hard to be rewarding, but it’s still easy to always be fun,” said Catherine Wang, one of our teammates at the time. It’s also a very pleasant way to walk the streets of Plateau Mont-Royal. ”
Specifically, it is best to wear good clothes, but also good shoes, because geocaching takes about three hours and you walk about eight kilometers. “Above all, be patient, not rush, read the clues carefully and think carefully before moving on,” suggests our third colleague, Jenny Lin, in closing, dismissing her from the start because she was in a hurry!
