Pirates of Las Palmas: Self-Guided Exploration Game

This is a self-guided exploration game crafted by a passionate local storyteller and played through the old port district of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. You will explore 10 different locations while following the story of a pirate captain's descendant searching for a lost treasure map tied to colonial history. At each location, you'll solve a real-world puzzle by searching for clues on monuments, graffiti, and facades. It stays around Vegueta, mixing real history with neighborhood myths only locals share.

Starting from the old port district, the stops are spaced an average of around 150m apart, with each location taking around 6 min to complete. The route also passes through Plaza de las ranas, GABINETE LITERARIO and CASA MUSEO PÉREZ GALDÓS. At each location, you'll solve a challenge and receive instructions for the next chapter.

DISCLAIMER: You will explore by yourself using the Questo app on your phone. No physical guide or stranger groups will be involved. The full route covers approximately 1.7 km (1.1 mi) and takes around 1:00h to complete. You can play it any day, at any time. Languages available: EN, DE, ES, IT.
