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.

What is the browser-based puzzle route?
Secrets of Basel combines a self-guided walking tour with puzzles and photo tasks. This city game Basel takes you past Basel Marktplatz first, then Peterskirche Square and afterwards the University of Basel Entrance. These places are part of the route that accompanies your team's tasks as you explore on foot.
You open the game in the browser on your own phone, without needing an app. The playing time is around 1.5 to 2 hours. Choose this option if you want your walk to include both puzzle solving and photo tasks. You can discuss the instructions together while moving at your own pace, with the city providing the setting for your shared activity.

Which story gives you a detective case?
Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Basel takes you through a detective murder case using the free Loquiz app. You see Martinskirche first, then Rathaus Basel and afterwards Basler Münster. The investigation is its own game, with a route separate from the browser-based puzzle walk through the city.
Allow around 1.5 to 2 hours for this story too. You walk at your own pace and use your own phone to follow the case. Before you begin, agree whether investigating a murder is the task your team wants to share. One person can read out the clues while everyone contributes thoughts. That keeps the investigation connected to the whole group during your self-guided walk.
What does your group need to decide?
Your city game Basel costs €19.95 per team using one phone with at most four players. Both stories allow this team size. First decide who is coming, then choose the game that matches the type of activity you want: puzzles and photo tasks or a detective investigation.
You can start whenever you like and should allow around 1.5 to 2 hours. Use your phone browser for Secrets of Basel, or the free Loquiz app for Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Basel. Agree which phone you will share and who will call up the tasks. The other players can offer ideas and look around as you walk, making the story a joint activity rather than something only one person follows.
