Solomos Square Zakynthos: walk and solve

Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Zakynthos starts on Solomos Square by the Byzantine Museum of Zakynthos. Along the walking route you also see Saint Dionysios Zakynthos Holy Orthodox Church. The square is therefore both a place to notice and a starting focus for a wider activity through town.

Look around together before concentrating on the fictional investigation. Your walk has a real setting, while the case offers an ongoing task to consider between the places you encounter. You can enjoy arriving somewhere and still have a reason to continue exploring afterwards. It is an outing for people who like having something shared to do alongside sightseeing on foot.

The game runs through the free Loquiz app on your own phone and allows at most 4 players per team. You follow a murder mystery on foot through Zakynthos town, keeping the same case available on one shared device. Your teammates can all contribute thoughts about what the game presents.

Give everyone the information before deciding on your approach. Reading aloud makes it easier to hear different suggestions, and explaining an idea lets others consider your reasoning. Friends, couples or colleagues may enjoy working differently while investigating the same story. Keep the conversation open to the whole group rather than leaving every decision with the person who is holding the phone.

The game costs €19.95 per team and takes 1.5 to 2 hours. You can start whenever you want, every day, and your purchase is valid for 12 months. Choose a playing time that gives your group room to enjoy walking and investigating together in Zakynthos.

Keep independent visits to sights separate from the game duration when planning the day. Decide who is joining, stay within the limit of 4 players and agree which phone you will share. Once you begin, let both the case and the actual surroundings have your attention. The route connects the places, while your group’s ideas help make the activity something you are sharing.
