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.

Which stories does old Nice tell?
Nice tells the legend of Saint Réparate, a young martyr whose body is said to have drifted to the coast in a boat guided by angels. That legend gave the Baie des Anges its name, and the cathedral on Place Rossetti is dedicated to her.
Above the old town rises the Colline du Château. The castle that stood there was torn down in 1706 by the troops of Louis XIV, and today the hill holds one of the city's old cemeteries.
In Cimiez, near the monastery, lies another cemetery where the painter Henri Matisse is buried. Few places in Nice feel as quiet on an autumn afternoon.
Had great fun playing secrets of Haarlem!

How does Nice celebrate Halloween?
Halloween in France is small: some costumes and parties, mostly for children. The real autumn holiday is Toussaint on 1 November, when families bring chrysanthemums to the graves. A halloween Nice outing in the old town at dusk fits that calm, slightly eerie mood, when the lanes empty and the church bells sound louder.
