    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.

Which detective walk includes Grand Place?

Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Mechelen describes a fictional investigation from the town hall on Grand Place to Saint Rumbold's Cathedral. Those three named places frame the walk for the detective experience. Your group follows it on foot at its own pace through the free Loquiz app on your phone. The playing time is 1.5 to 2 hours. Choose this story for a shared case connected to the square. The actual route gives your companions places to encounter, while the imagined investigation provides something to discuss together. Plan any independent building visits around the activity, leaving time for the full game you have selected.

What search is offered in Secrets of Mechelen?

Secrets of Mechelen asks you to help a performer recover a Golden Parade Cape in a fictional city quest. Its listed route takes in Grote Markt & Margaret of Austria Statue, Schepenhuis (Aldermen's House), Jef Denynplein and Hof van Busleyden Museum. You play in your phone’s browser with no app needed and allow 1.5 to 2 hours. Choose it when your companions prefer a missing object search to a detective investigation. Both options connect to the square, but their stories and routes differ. Agree on your preferred experience before beginning and follow its places and tasks together rather than trying to combine both games into one outing.

How do price and flexible starting work?

A Mechelen game costs €19.95 per team, with at most 4 players using one phone. You can start whenever you want, every day, within 12 months of validity. Find a suitable day with your companions and leave room for the full playing time alongside other city plans. Check whether your selection uses the browser or Loquiz before starting. Friends, couples, families or colleagues can share the tasks and compare ideas outside. Your own group follows the self-guided experience without meeting a guide at a fixed departure. Let everyone contribute as the game progresses, so the shared phone carries an activity that the whole team takes part in.

Can both games include the square?

Sherlock names Grand Place in its described route. Secrets lists Grote Markt & Margaret of Austria Statue.

Is the cape search fictional?

Yes. Recovering the performer’s Golden Parade Cape is the storyline used by Secrets of Mechelen.

Which option works without an app?

Secrets of Mechelen runs in your own phone’s browser, with no app needed.

What is the duration and team limit?

Both games take 1.5 to 2 hours, with at most 4 players sharing one phone for €19.95 per team.
