Choose an area with recognizable visual elements, either architectural (statues, buildings, monuments) or artistic (murals, graffiti, urban sculptures).



Explore the area, take photos, and note their locations. Keep in mind that the more balanced the distances between each photo are, the more dynamic the game will be.



Create the clues from your photos. Sometimes it’s more fun to crop a fragment of the image instead of showing the whole picture, to make the game more challenging.



Draw a map with the location of each photo. Make sure to mark each area precisely to avoid confusion among players.



Randomly number the photos and the locations. This way, players will need to match each photo with its correct spot.
