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 makes Urk feel eerie on an autumn evening?
Urk was an island in the Zuiderzee for centuries, until the land around it was drained and the Noordoostpolder was made in the 1940s. The village still feels apart: tight lanes, small houses and a fishing harbour that shaped every family.
That life at sea had a dark side. Next to the Kerkje aan de Zee stands a memorial with the names of Urk fishermen who never came home from the sea. On a grey autumn evening, with the wind on the old dike, it is a quiet and moving place.
Urk also has an old legend: babies were said to come from the Ommelebommelestien, a stone in the water off the coast.
Had great fun playing secrets of Haarlem!
Which games can you play in Urk?
Secrets of Urk is a scavenger hunt through the old harbour, past the village museum and the church by the sea. On the way you see the Kerkje aan de Zee, the Urker Strand, Ut Vuurtje and the Urk Lighthouse.
Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Urk is a detective case with a story based on Sherlock Holmes. You start on the Klifweg and walk past the Westhavenkade and Museum Urk to the lighthouse.
Both games use the free Loquiz app on your own phone, and a team of up to 4 players plays on one phone.
Is there a Ghost Hunters game in Urk?
Not yet: our ghost game Ghost Hunters is coming to Urk. Leave your e-mail address on this page and we will let you know when it starts.
Halloween is a fairly new custom in the Netherlands, mostly costume parties and a few children going door to door. A walk through an old fishing village at dusk is a calmer way to mark it. For your halloween Urk evening, wrap up warm: the wind by the lighthouse can be sharp at the end of October.
Is there a halloween Urk discount?
Yes. Use the code HALLOWEEN50 for 50% off all our games, valid until 2 November.
What does a game cost?
€19.95 per team: one phone, at most 4 players.
Can we start after dark?
Yes, you start whenever you like, every day. A game takes 1.5–2 hours.
Is it suitable for children?
Yes. The games are about the village and its history, not horror, so families can play together.
