Family day out Ivalo: walk and solve

Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Ivalo follows a case from the village centre to the Ivalo River and Petsamo Statue at your own pace. Along the route you see Ivalo River, Monitoimitalo Kuulas and Petsamo Statue. These places give your family things to notice while the phone supplies the next step in the story. Invite the children to explain a thought before adding an adult's theory, then compare the team's suggestions. You use the free Loquiz app on your own phone and follow the investigation as a self-guided family activity on foot, sharing the decisions together.

Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Ivalo is played by a team on a shared phone, so parents and children can discuss the same case. Choose this family day out Ivalo after talking about the murder mystery theme with your children. During play, a parent can read while others observe, listen or think of another approach. Give the ideas time before choosing a response. You can share reading, looking and discussion according to what people enjoy, then change roles when useful. Keep everyone informed about the current task so the person holding the phone is not investigating alone.

The game takes around 1.5 to 2 hours and costs €19.95 per team: one phone, at most 4 players. Before your family day out Ivalo, prepare the free Loquiz app and agree to share each instruction aloud. Children can then keep looking around and still help with the team's response without watching the screen constantly. Ask for ideas before answering, with parents clarifying the task when needed. Start whenever you want on any day. The game is valid for 12 months, leaving flexibility to choose a date and time that fit your family's plans for the shared walk.
