Wir (Mein Mann, unsere 9-jährige Tochter und ich) haben heute ganz spontan das Spiel "Moordmysterie Düsseldorf" gebucht und gespielt. Die Buchung verlief schnell und reibungslos. Es hat super viel Spaß gemacht! Die Story, die Rätsel, das Konzept, die Route, die Gestaltung der App... richtig gut!!! Das Spiel würde ich vor allem Familien mit Kindern empfehlen. Für Erwachsene waren die Rätsel (meiner Meinung nach) zu einfach. Aber trotzdem wegen der schönen Route durch Düsseldorf, der Story, den lustigen Anweisungen zwischendurch eine schöne Aktion, die man zusammen machen kann.

I had a fantastic experience with CityGame! The concept is creative, engaging, and a great way to explore a city in a completely new way. The games are well-designed, combining puzzles, storytelling, and adventure so you’re constantly discovering something interesting around every corner. What I especially love is how CityGame turns a normal walk through the city into an interactive experience. It’s perfect for friends, families, or team outings, and it makes sightseeing much more exciting than the usual tours. Everything was easy to use, the challenges were fun and clever, and it really encouraged us to look closer at the city and its hidden details. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a unique and memorable way to explore!

This is an interesting way to conduct a self-guided Amsterdam city tour. It used the GPS on your phone to guide you to stops on a route. There are mini quizzes once you arrive at the stops on the path. The quizzes draw your attention to features in front of you or to a brief history of the place. In many cases, we visited a spot that would not have been obvious as a regular passer by. The tour as a whole was interesting to us as newcomers, but I would have liked more information on many locations we visited - a few links outside of the app for each place would have been helpful. Beyond that, the interface was a bit clunky and sometimes awkward to navigate. We definitely don't regret trying this out and feel like we got our money's worth on the experience.

Which detective walk includes the fortress?
Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Salzburg includes Fortress Hohensalzburg after Residenzplatz and Mirabell Palace, then continues towards Mozart’s Birthplace in walking order. Those places give the fictional case a real setting, connecting your fortress search with a wider outing on foot through Salzburg.
At the fortress stop, take a moment to notice where you are before returning to the story. Your group can enjoy reaching a place and still have a common task to carry onwards. The route supplies destinations, while the murder case gives the time between them something to discuss. Both can contribute to a walk that involves the whole team.

What do teammates use to investigate?
You play in the free Loquiz app on your own phone, with at most 4 players sharing one team. The detective activity takes place on foot in Salzburg, keeping the case available to everyone on a single device. Each person can contribute an idea without needing their own screen.
Read the information aloud and hear different interpretations before you agree on an approach. A couple, friends or colleagues may enjoy thinking differently while investigating the same fictional story. The person carrying the phone can help by sharing the information, rather than making every decision alone. Your group’s conversation keeps the activity common to everyone as the surroundings change.
What are the price and starting arrangements?
The game costs €19.95 per team and takes 1.5 to 2 hours, with flexible starting every day. Your purchase remains valid for 12 months. Choose a playing time that leaves room for walking and investigating together within your Salzburg plans.
Keep independent visits to sights separate from the stated duration. Before beginning, confirm who is joining and which phone you will share, staying within the limit of 4 players per team. Once you start, let the real surroundings have attention alongside the case. You can look around at a stop and return to discussing the investigation as the route continues, making both parts of the outing something the group shares.
