How we check reviews

These reviews were left by players on Google and other review sites and are copied from there as they are, with their source.

How does the detective walk connect the fort?

Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Marseille leads from La Vieille Charité down to the old harbour and the fort. This gives your group a connection between city places while the case supplies something to work on together. The fort is part of a wider outing rather than the only destination for the day.

No fort admission or interior visit is specified for the walking activity. If you want additional visiting time, plan it independently alongside the game. At the stop, let the real setting have attention before reading onward. Clear expectations help companions with different interests understand what the shared outing includes and where any separate plans belong in the rest of your day.

How do companions share the investigation?

Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Marseille is self-guided through the free Loquiz app on one phone. Up to four players can form a team and compare their theories about the case. The device provides the activity while your group supplies the conversation and decisions as the walk develops.

Make sure everyone hears each task before settling on an answer. A companion without the phone may see another possibility worth explaining. Reading and discussing can change hands during the outing, so the device holder need not manage every decision alone. This helps the case remain common to all players rather than something one person operates while the others simply follow the route.

What exploration activity offers puzzles and photographs?

Secrets of Marseille begins at the Vieux-Port and includes Statue Henri Tasso, Cathédrale La Major and La Vieille Charité along its route. Choose this separate walk for puzzles and photo tasks, or the detective activity for a continuing case and the route that reaches the fort described here.

Both games take 1.5 to 2 hours and cost €19.95 per team of up to four players sharing one phone. Both use the free Loquiz app, offer flexible daily starts and remain valid for twelve months after purchase. Compare the formats with your companions, then find a suitable date. Extra time at individual places belongs alongside the game duration.

Does the detective walk reach the fort?

Yes, the described walk leads from La Vieille Charité towards the harbour and fort.

Is a fort visit included?

No admission or interior visit is specified.

Can a pair share the case?

Yes, two players can form a team within the four-player limit.

Do we need a fixed departure?

No, both games offer flexible daily starts.
