Petite France Strasbourg: walk and solve

Petite France is a district in Strasbourg known for its canals and half-timbered buildings. It rewards looking at the setting as a whole rather than focusing only on one point. Pause during your game to compare what different companions notice about the buildings and waterside surroundings. That keeps the walk connected to the actual city, even when the story gives you plenty to discuss. Your group can decide when to move on because the games are self-guided. If you want to spend longer exploring the district outside the game, leave separate time around the walking activity you choose.

Secrets of Strasbourg and Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Strasbourg both pass Petite France. The exploration route brings you past the cathedral facade, into Petite France and on to Place Broglie. Its wider walk also includes the lanes around the cathedral. The detective game follows a murder mystery towards the cathedral and Petite France. Along its route you also see the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art and the Ponts Couverts. Choose whether your group prefers an exploration outing or a detective case to follow, and let those changing surroundings provide reasons to look up between the moments of play.

Both Strasbourg games cost €19.95 per team, last 1.5 to 2 hours and allow at most 4 players using one phone. They both use the free Loquiz app, so decide which device your group will share before starting. One person can read while everyone discusses the activity, making the walk something friends, couples or colleagues can contribute to together. You can start whenever you want, every day, and the game remains valid for 12 months. That lets you settle the story before choosing the precise date. Add time separately for other visits so your plans leave room for the game and your own curiosity.
