    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.

    This was a fun game! It had a few challenges which was good and surprises. It got me to go around and explore Queenstown, New Zealand. I got to places in Queenstown, New Zealand I hadn’t been to before while on holiday here. Thank you for that and it gave a feel what it would be like to be the actual Sherlock Holmes!

Which mission takes you to the bell tower?

Secrets of Ferrara asks you to help Niccolò III d’Este recover a fabled sword in a fictional city quest. Its listed route takes in Cattedrale di San Giorgio (Portal), Torre dell'Orologio, City Square near the Bicycles and Cathedral Bell Tower. These points give the search a walk through Ferrara while the missing sword provides your group’s common purpose. The game takes 1.5 to 2 hours and runs in your phone’s browser, with no app needed. Choose it for a story-led activity including the tower. Plan any independent tower visit separately around playing and share each task with your companions so everyone can contribute an idea before you continue.
