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 makes Notre-Dame worth a stop?
Notre-Dame is the great Gothic cathedral of Paris, and its west facade is one of the most recognisable sights in the city. From the square in front you take in the two towers, the large rose window and the rows of carved figures above the doorways.
Walk along the side and you see the flying buttresses that hold up the walls, and the gargoyles and chimeras that Victor Hugo's novel made famous. The cathedral was badly damaged by fire and has since been restored, so many visitors come back to see it again. On the square, look down for the bronze star of Point Zéro, the spot from which road distances in France are measured.
Which game starts at Notre-Dame Cathedral?
Secrets of Paris, the Victor Hugo route, starts at Notre-Dame Cathedral and then takes you across the river and around the Île de la Cité.
The story fits the place: you hunt clues through the city's historic heart to save the lost chapter of The Hunchback of Notre-Dame. After the cathedral you walk to Square René Viviani on the Left Bank, pass the Crypte archéologique de l'Île de la Cité and continue towards the Conciergerie. Along the way you solve puzzles and photo tasks as a team, in the browser on your own phone, with no app to install.
How does a city game change your visit?
Playing a city game around Notre-Dame Cathedral Paris gives you a reason to look closer. A question might send you back to a detail on the facade, or ask your team to spot something on the square that most people walk past.
There is no guide and no group to follow. You set the pace, take breaks when you want and talk through every clue together. It works well for friends, families with children, couples and colleagues looking for a relaxed outing in the centre of Paris.
What does it cost and how long does it take?
Secrets of Paris costs €19.95 per team: one phone, at most 4 players. Plan 1.5–2 hours for the route, from Notre-Dame Cathedral across the river and back around the Île de la Cité.
You play in the browser on your own phone, so there is nothing to download. Book, walk to the square in front of Notre-Dame Cathedral, open the game and begin whenever you like. Pick one person to hold the phone and read the clues aloud, while the others look around for answers.
Can I play the game without going inside Notre-Dame?
Yes. The game leads you past the cathedral and around the island outdoors, so you see Notre-Dame from the square and the streets around it.
Do I need an app?
No. Secrets of Paris runs in the browser on your own phone, no app needed.
How much does it cost?
The price is €19.95 per team: one phone, at most 4 players.
Is it suitable for children?
Yes, families can play together. Children can help spot details and solve the photo tasks while an adult holds the phone.
How long is the walk?
Plan 1.5–2 hours, depending on your pace and how long you stop at each place.
