In a quiz, participants navigate to each stop and answer a multiple-choice question. The questions can be about what they see at the location or about historical facts connected to the site. Correct answers earn points and the leaderboard shows who's in the lead.
The screenshots below are this exact quiz, running in Gamla Stan, Stockholm — five stops across the old town, about 700 metres of walking end to end. Nothing here is a mock-up: it is the five quests from this example, dropped on five real landmarks and played through.
The question wording is a starting point, not a script. Each stop below notes the Stockholm landmark it was staged at — borrow the shape of the walk and write questions that are true where you are.
The five quiz stops pinned across Gamla Stan. The participant is 42 metres from the first one, in front of the Royal Palace.
A quest only opens once the participant is physically within about 30 metres of it — so the question below cannot be answered from the hotel room. The countdown in the header is the speed bonus, which shrinks the longer they take to answer.
Stop 1's question opens on arrival, with the speed bonus counting down in the header.
A correct answer pays the 300-point base plus whatever is left of the speed bonus.
Everyone's answers land on the same scoreboard as they go, so a group spread across the old town can still see who is ahead.
The live scoreboard part-way through the walk.

Option 1: Neoclassical ✓
Option 2: Art Nouveau

Stop 2 — The Old Square
Historic squares always have stories to tell. Use the location for questions about events, statues, or the surrounding buildings.

Stop 3 — The Hidden Passage
Lead participants off the main thoroughfare. Questions about details that require observation reward those who really look around.
Staged in Mårten Trotzigs gränd, the narrowest alley in the city at 90 centimetres across — the kind of detour nobody finds by accident.
Quest 3 tucked into the lanes behind Västerlånggatan.
Question: What color is the oldest door in the alley?
Option 1: Red
Option 2: Blue
Option 3: Green ✓
Stop 4 — The Waterfront

Staged on Skeppsbron, the working quay where Stockholm's shipping trade actually happened.
Quest 4 out on the Skeppsbron quay.
Question: What type of goods were primarily transported on this canal during the 1800s?

Staged at the Karl XIV Johan statue on Slussplan, at the southern tip of the old town.
The closing question, at the monument on Slussplan.
Question: The monument in front of you was erected to commemorate an event. Which decade did it take place?
