ParaPoly - The Urban Adventure Game is a new kind of leisure activity. A game with components of scavenger hunt, escape game, and city tour, combined into a real-life board game. Starting from a central square in the city, the tour takes you to famous places, important monuments, and interesting corners. Existing elements are used for the game, as in buildings, monuments, streets, and statues - this is how history comes alive. The tasks were designed by escape game developers. And, just like in an escape room, each game has its own mission which is integrated into a story, along with the places you visit and the tasks you have to solve. ParaPoly is suitable for everyone who likes to play games, be it a parlour game, escape room, scavenger hunt, or city rally, everyone who loves adventure, likes to solve puzzles, does not shy away from two to three km of walking, and likes to experience something in a group. You can play as a couple or even in six, with children and grandparents.
