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.

Why notice this house during a city game?
Haus zum Ritter is a building on Hauptstraße 178 in Heidelberg and is passed by Secrets and the detective game. Looking at it in its street setting gives your outing a particular house to recognise alongside churches and squares on the routes. Pause to take in the exterior before continuing your activity. A game connects that sightseeing moment with a common purpose for your group. You might enjoy discovery puzzles and photo tasks or prefer discussing a murder case as you explore. Choose the theme with your companions before setting off, so the building becomes one part of a wider walk everyone shares together.

Which routes take you past Haus zum Ritter?
Secrets of Heidelberg passes the house during a walk with puzzles, photo tasks and city stories. You see Kornmarkt Madonna before Karlsplatz and later Heiliggeistkirche by Marktplatz before recognising the house along the route. Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Heidelberg also passes it on a case starting at Heiliggeistkirche. Its route includes Alte Brücke before Marktplatz, then the church and Jesuitenkirche. The Heidelberg Syndicate (outdoor escape game) follows Magnus and stolen formulas from Universitätsplatz towards Karlsplatz, with the same building among its stops.
