    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.

Why stop to look at Stephansdom?

Stephansdom is a cathedral in Vienna and a striking place to look at the city’s architecture. Give yourself a moment to see the whole building, then turn your attention to the relationship between its roof, tower and facade. A brief pause can make the landmark more memorable than simply reading its name as you walk past.

If you are playing with others, compare the things that first caught your eye. One teammate may notice the overall shape while another studies a smaller detail. You do not need to invent an extra puzzle about the cathedral. Let it be a sightseeing moment within your chosen route, then return to the game and continue exploring the city together.

Which Vienna games pass the cathedral?

Secrets combines puzzles, photo tasks and stories about the Graben, the cathedral and the Hofburg. Along its route you see Stephansdom, Ruprechtskirche and the Freda-Meissner-Blau Promenade. The murder mystery follows a detective story from the Hofburg to Stephansdom; you also see the Pestsäule on the Graben and Haas Haus on its route.

The Syndicate follows Magnus and the stolen formulas from the Graben to Maria am Gestade. You see Pestsäule, Peterskirche, Ankeruhr and Stephansdom along the way. It is an outdoor escape game played on the streets. Choose the story first, so the route suits what your team wants to do together.

What should your team prepare?

The listed Vienna games cost €19.95 per team and take 1.5 to 2 hours. Secrets and Sherlock allow up to four players sharing one phone; The Syndicate allows up to five. All three use the free Loquiz app. Agree on the phone your team will use and prepare it for the chosen game before heading out.

You can start whenever you want, every day, and your purchase is valid for twelve months. Leave room in your plans to discuss tasks as well as walk between places. Let someone other than the phone holder suggest an answer first, and ask why they think it fits.
