    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.

Where does the palace fit into Secrets?

Secrets of Brussels includes Palace of Karel van Lotharingen, Queen Elisabeth statue, Brussels Parliament and Manneken Pis in that walking sequence. Your group follows Agent X.O. in a fictional quest to recover a waffle-patterned outfit. Notice the palace during the route and keep the invented story separate from the history of the real places. Plan any interior visit independently of the walking game. You can share the current clue and compare possible interpretations before choosing an answer, giving every companion a chance to contribute. The phone supplies the prompts, while the route brings different surroundings into your outing and leaves room to look around together as you continue the adventure.

Would your companions prefer a detective story?

Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Brussels follows a case from Grand Place past Manneken Pis to Mont des Arts. This fictional investigation provides another activity to discuss while your group explores on foot. Choose it if a detective premise appeals more than the discovery mission with Agent X.O. Agree on which story interests everyone before selecting a game, then follow one adventure together. Each player can suggest explanations or question a first answer, keeping the decisions open to the whole team. Real city locations give the walk variety, while the case provides clues to consider between them. Keep any separately arranged visits outside the walking activity and its fictional events.

What do one team’s time and phone require?

Both listed games cost €19.95 per team, take about 1.5 to 2 hours and allow up to four players sharing one phone. Secrets runs in the browser on your own phone without an app; Sherlock Holmes uses the free Loquiz app. You can start daily at a flexible time, and the purchase remains valid for 12 months. Choose a suitable space in your plans for the walk and the tasks. During play, read or show prompts to your companions so everyone follows the current challenge. Comparing observations and ideas can turn the next response into a group decision, with each person helping the team continue through the adventure and the city together.
