What if my camera breaks during the event and I can't take pictures of the checkpoints?
Please have a back up just in case this happens. The only way City Solve can verify your success is to check your team's photos.
Is CitySolve Urban Race like geocaching or letterboxing?
Kind of. In geocaching, participants use GPS to find treasures. In CitySolve Urban Race, participants won't find hidden treasures, they will be looking for destinations. In letterboxing, participants must solve clues to find, well... letterboxes. Letterboxing or geocaching's virtual cache type is more closely related to our unique urban adventure game.
