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 the Göttingen Seven Monument stands for
The Göttingen Seven were seven professors of the University of Göttingen who protested when the King of Hanover cancelled the kingdom's constitution. Among them were the Brothers Grimm, better known today for their fairy tales. They refused to back down, were dismissed, and some were sent into exile. Their stand became a famous moment in the story of free speech and academic freedom in Germany.
The monument shows seven figures side by side, a quiet group that seems to hold its ground. Standing in front of the state parliament, it makes a clear point about courage and the rule of law. Take a minute to walk around it: from each side the figures look a little different.

Which game passes the monument
Our game The Hanover Syndicate (outdoor escape game) passes the Göttingen Seven Monument. You track Magnus and the stolen formulas on foot through the centre, solving puzzles as a team. On the way you see the Altes Rathaus Hannover, the brick Marktkirche, the Ballhofplatz with its old timber-framed houses and the busy Kröpcke, and later the Kreuzkirche.
There is no locked door to open: the whole city is the puzzle, full of clues. The game is for 2 to 5 players on one phone, and you play with the free Loquiz app. If you prefer a calmer pace, Secrets of Hanover is a self-guided exploration game that starts at the Holzmarkt, with puzzles and photo tasks in the old town.
Price, time and how to start
Both games take 1.5–2 hours and you walk at your own pace. The price is €19.95 per team: one phone, at most 4 players for Secrets of Hanover, and 2 to 5 players for The Hanover Syndicate (outdoor escape game). You download the free Loquiz app, and you are ready to go.
You start whenever you want, on any day. It works well for friends, couples, families with older children and colleagues looking for a team outing. Bigger groups can split into several teams, each on its own phone, and see who cracks the case first.
