Place Saint Nicolas Bastia: walk and solve

Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Bastia takes you from Place Saint Nicolas down to the old harbour. On the walking route you also see Jardin Romieu, Musée de Bastia - Museu di Bastia and U Vechju Portu. The square belongs to a broader outing where sightseeing and a fictional investigation go together.

Give the square your attention when you are there, then let the story help carry the outing onwards. A shared case adds a subject for conversation between the places you encounter. You can enjoy reaching a destination while also wondering what your team will make of the next part of the mystery. The walk has both a setting and an activity.

The game uses the free Loquiz app on your own phone and allows at most 4 players per team. You follow a detective murder mystery on foot through Bastia, sharing the case on a single device. The screen provides the activity, while your teammates provide the different ideas and interpretations.

Read the information together before making a decision. If one person carries the phone, keep the rest of the group involved through discussion rather than simply asking them to follow. This can suit friends, couples or colleagues who want to do something active together. Walking between places gives you room to continue considering the case without making every conversation about directions.

Reserve 1.5 to 2 hours for the game and budget €19.95 per team. You can start whenever you want, every day, and the purchase remains valid for 12 months. Those arrangements let you choose a moment when the group is ready to explore Bastia together.

Plan independent sightseeing separately from the game duration so the detective activity has enough room in the day. Agree which phone you will share and keep your team within the maximum of 4 players. Once you start, consider the activity a common project: everyone should be able to hear the information, offer an idea and enjoy the places that form the setting of your investigation.
