Fancy yourself as a detective? Canary Detect, the leading water leak detection company on Lanzarote, has launched an exciting and free to play competition called “Spot the Leak.” The game offers a unique blend of entertainment, education, and community engagement.
The game challenges players to test their detective skills by identifying the source of hidden water leaks in images of properties. The competition not only provides a fun and addictive experience but also offers a powerful marketing platform for local businesses. And yes you read that right, it’s completely free!
How to Play: More Than Just a Game
The concept of “Spot the Leak” is simple yet surprisingly engaging. Participants are presented with a photograph of a property displaying signs of water damage and must pinpoint the hidden leak’s location. The player whose guess is closest to the actual source wins. This engaging format is reminiscent of the classic “spot the ball” competitions, but with a modern, educational twist.
Beyond the thrill of the chase, “Spot the Leak” serves as an educational tool, teaching players that the visible signs of a leak often don’t reveal its true origin. Water can travel several meters underground before surfacing, a fact that the game effectively demonstrates. This challenges players to think like professional leak detectors, considering factors such as hidden pipework and the behaviour of water in different terrains.
Getting started is easy and free. Players can create an account at www.leak-detective.com which gives them access to all active competitions. Each registered user receives a free entry into every new competition, ensuring that the fun never stops. Players can earn additional entries by referring friends or by using special promotional codes offered by the competition’s sponsors.
Prizes are a major draw, with past competitions offering cash rewards of up to €500, vouchers for local restaurants and shops, and even pool chemical kits. All prizes are sponsored by local businesses, reinforcing the competition’s commitment to the island’s economy.
A Growing Community
“Spot the Leak” is more than just a competition; it’s a growing community of “Leaky Finders.” A “Hall of Fame” on the website recognises the most skilled players and those who have won the monthly prizes, adding a competitive and social element to the game. With new competitions launching regularly, there are always fresh challenges and new opportunities to win. And why not invite your friends to join? Nothing like a bit of competition to see who can get closest to the actual leak.
