    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 commander’s living-blaze quest?

Secrets of Porto asks you to join commander Guilherme Gnomes Fernandes in hunting a living blaze through the city. Along the route you see Igreja do Carmo, Hospital de Santo António and Porta do Olival. The quest gives children a shared goal while your family follows the instructions. Let them describe what they think the team should do, then compare the suggestions before entering a response. This game runs in the browser on your own phone, with no app needed to follow the story through the city.

Where does the detective case reach the river?

Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Porto follows a case from Câmara Municipal down to the river and Ponte Dom Luís I. You see Cais da Ribeira de Gaia, Palácio da Bolsa and Teatro Nacional São João along its route. Choose this family day out Porto if your children want a murder investigation to talk through. Discuss that theme before selecting it, then hear everyone's theories as you walk. The game uses the free Loquiz app on your shared phone, with the case followed by the family as one self-guided team.

How can you make the family’s planning simple?

Both Porto games take around 1.5 to 2 hours and cost €19.95 per team: one phone, at most 4 players.

Give everyone access to the task by reading it aloud, then ask for ideas before choosing the team's response. Children can help through observation and discussion without doing every part of the reading. Start whenever you want on any day; the game is valid for 12 months when selecting a date together.

Does the living-blaze quest need a download?
