Heraklion Old Town Heraklion: walk and solve

Secrets of Heraklion includes Koules Fortress, Heraklion Old Town, City Park Circle and the Kalinihta sign in that walking sequence. The game’s fictional quest asks your group to help Poseidon recover a lost trident, giving the walk a shared objective between real places. Keep the myth-inspired story separate from the history of the surroundings as you explore. Your companions can compare what a clue might mean before choosing an answer together. Sharing the current prompt lets each player contribute an observation or interpretation, keeping the discovery collaborative rather than dependent on the person carrying the phone while the rest of the group follows.

Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Heraklion follows a fictional case from Eleftherias Square to Morosini Fountain and the harbour fortress. The investigation gives your group clues to discuss while real locations provide surroundings for the walk. Choose it if detective reasoning interests your companions more than the lost-trident quest in Secrets. Agree on which premise everyone wants before selecting an adventure, then focus on one shared story together. Each player can suggest possible explanations and question a first answer, helping the team decide its response. Plan separately arranged visits independently of the walking activity so each part of your day has its own time.

Both listed games cost €19.95 per team, take around 1.5 to 2 hours and allow up to four players sharing one phone. Secrets runs in your own phone browser without an app; Sherlock Holmes uses the free Loquiz app. You can start daily at a flexible time, and the purchase stays valid for 12 months. Choose a moment when the group has room for the route and its tasks. During play, read or show prompts to all your companions so everyone knows the challenge. Comparing different ideas makes the next response a shared discussion, keeping each player involved as the adventure continues through the city.
