    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 can children notice on the Nijmegen puzzle walk?

Secrets of Nijmegen combines puzzles and photo tasks with stories about Grote Markt, De Waagh and Sint Stevenskerk. You see De Waagh and Kerkboog Facade, followed by Historic Chapel with its Mariken plaque and Oorlogsmonument Twee Soldaten along the route. The game uses the free Loquiz app on your own phone. For a family day out Nijmegen, read the tasks together and let children explain what they notice before adults add ideas. Photo tasks offer another way for everyone to participate alongside solving puzzles. Share reading and observation so all family members can follow the information and contribute to your responses during the walk.

Which other Nijmegen story interests your family?

The Nijmegen Syndicate (outdoor escape game) follows Magnus and stolen formulas from Grote Markt and Stevenskerk towards Museum De Bastei. You see Sint Stevenskerkhof and Stevenskerk, followed by Achter de Hoofdwacht and Arsenaalpoort. Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Nijmegen leads from Grote Markt towards Valkhof. Its route includes Kronenburgerpark and Lange Hezelstraat 42, followed by Valkhof Park and Sint-Nicolaaskapel. Discuss the murder theme with your children before choosing that case.
