Family day out Reykjavik: walk and solve

Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Reykjavik follows a case from Hallgrimskirkja down Laugavegur to Tjörnin in your own time. Along the route you see City Hall Reykjavik, National Museum of Iceland and Austurvöllur. These places give your family things to notice while the phone carries the next step of the story. Invite the children to explain a thought before adults suggest an answer, then compare the team's ideas. You use the free Loquiz app on your own phone and follow the case together as a shared self-guided activity on foot, with your family choosing its responses during the walk.

Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Reykjavik is played by a team on one phone, so parents and children can discuss the same case. Choose this family day out Reykjavik 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 task so the person carrying the screen is not the only family member investigating.

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 Reykjavik, prepare the free Loquiz app and agree to read out each instruction. Children can then look around while still helping with the team's response without watching the screen constantly. Invite their ideas before answering, with parents clarifying the task when useful. Start whenever you want on any day. The game remains valid for 12 months, leaving flexibility to choose a date that fits your family and the rest of your plans for the visit.
