Photo quests in Panaji

What the catalogue actually holds here, and which of it is worth rearranging a day around.

Two of the three quests in Panaji are food — more than half the city in one category, with the rest spread over one other category.

None of them is tier 1 — the tier the catalogue reserves for finds nobody would already have on a list — so every check-in in Panaji is open on any plan. All of them are tier 3, the label for what a visitor would expect a travel app to have anyway.

A food quest names the dish rather than the restaurant: the pin sits on the room that serves it, but what you are going for is the plate. Party is the group where the hour decides everything: the same address is a landmark at midnight and an empty street at six. Every check-in works the same way: the geotag your camera wrote into the photo has to land within 200 m of the quest's own point.

Panaji is a short list for now — three quests is exactly the floor a city needs to have a page here at all. It grows when the pipeline publishes into Panaji again, and nothing about this page has to change for that to happen.

By category

Each of these opens the whole category across every city, with the Panaji quests among them.

Questions

About quests in Panaji

How many photo quests are there in Panaji?
3, across Food and Party. The deepest group is Food (2). Nothing in History, Nature, Art, Beach and Sport here yet — a category appears in a city the moment a quest is published into it, so the gaps move. They are: Chicken Xacuti, Big Daddy and Pork Vindaloo.
Can you do all the Panaji quests on one trip?
On foot, yes. All 3 sit within 1.7 km of the middle of the Panaji list, so what limits a day here is how many places you want to stop at rather than the distance between them.
Which Panaji quests can you do for free?
All 3. The PRO gate covers checking in to the hardest tier of quests, and Panaji holds none of that tier, so every quest here can be read, travelled to and checked in on the free plan. Checking in anywhere needs an account, because a verified visit has to belong to somebody, but an account costs nothing.
How do I prove I visited a place in Panaji?
Take the photo at the place and upload it. Your browser reads the location the camera wrote into that file and measures it against the quest's own coordinates; inside 200 m the check-in counts. The distance is measured to the point, not to the city: being in Panaji is not what is checked, and a photo taken across town from Chicken Xacuti fails exactly the way one taken at home does. A file with no location in it cannot be checked at all, and a photo that has been through a messaging app usually arrives that way — upload the original out of the camera roll rather than a copy someone sent back to you. The Food quests in Panaji sit on the room where the dish is served rather than on the dish, so that address is what the 200 m is measured from.
