Fort-de-France treasure hunt: Solve riddles, free animals

Ten riddles, ten landmarks, one mission to save the Antilles fauna

A self-guided digital treasure hunt in Fort-de-France where you solve riddles on your smartphone to free animals kidnapped by a secret organization. You explore 10 emblematic places in the historic center at your own pace, watch cultural videos at each stop, and earn titles based on how many animals you rescue. The game takes about 90 minutes and requires only internet access on your phone. No app download or guide needed.

The experience

Fort-de-France's historic center becomes your game board. After booking, you click a link on your virtual ticket and enter codes as you move through the city, solving logic puzzles and observation challenges at 10 specific landmarks. Each riddle you crack frees one of the kidnapped animals and unlocks a video about that location's history and the local fauna and flora. The riddles work for all ages and fitness levels. You move at your own speed with no imposed group or schedule.

The game runs about 90 minutes across 2.7 kilometers of walking through downtown. You'll discover hidden corners of the city while learning about the Antilles ecosystem. Solve at least seven riddles and you earn the Guardian of Protected Species title plus a gift. Solve fewer and you're still a Protector Agent. All videos come subtitled in English, German, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese, so the cultural information reaches you in your language.

Start from the port (the game's checkout point sits just five minutes away), or begin from anywhere in the city center. You need only a smartphone with internet. No application to download means no extra charges or setup delays. The game waits for you to click play whenever you're ready, whether that's during a cruise stop, a vacation day, or a local afternoon.

The game takes you to 10 landmarks throughout the historic center, each with its own riddle and cultural video. The operator doesn't list them in advance, so part of the adventure is discovering each location as you solve the puzzles that lead you there.

Is this activity suitable for young children?

The game is accessible from age 7 or 8 and works for all physical fitness levels. Younger children can participate with adult help, and strollers are welcome. The riddles are simple and fun rather than difficult, designed to entertain while teaching about local nature and history.
