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.

Which game takes you from Puerta del Sol to Plaza Mayor?
Secrets of Madrid starts at Puerta del Sol and leads towards Plaza Mayor with puzzles and photo tasks. As you follow the route, you see Plaza Mayor, Calle Mayor and the Pontifical Basilica of San Miguel. The mixture of walking and tasks gives parents and children opportunities to take different roles. Someone can read the next instruction while others look around, then everyone can help decide on an answer. You use the free Loquiz app on your own phone for this self-guided exploration game.

What does the detective route add?
Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Madrid follows a case from Puerta del Sol past Plaza Mayor to the Royal Palace. Listed sights along its route include the Temple of Debod, Museo Nacional del Prado and Catedral de Santa María la Real de la Almudena. Consider this family day out Madrid when a detective story is what your team wants to discuss. Because the premise is a murder case, choose it with your children's interests in mind. The investigation is self-guided on your phone and uses the free Loquiz app.
What should the family organise before playing?
Both Madrid games cost €19.95 per team: one phone, at most 4 players, and take around 1.5 to 2 hours. Prepare the free Loquiz app before your family day out Madrid and decide which phone you will share. Reading instructions aloud helps everyone participate even when only one person is holding the screen. Give children a chance to offer an idea before the team settles on a response. You can start whenever you want on any day, and the game remains valid for 12 months after you choose it.
Does Secrets of Madrid require an app?
Yes. Secrets of Madrid uses the free Loquiz app, as does Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Madrid.
Where do the Madrid games start?

What makes the exploration collaborative?
Secrets of Madrid includes puzzles and photo tasks. You can share reading, looking and suggesting ideas among family members.
How long should we allow for a game?
Allow around 1.5 to 2 hours for either Madrid game. You choose your own starting time.
