    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.

Where does the mausoleum appear in Secrets?

Secrets of Rome includes Ara Pacis Museum, Mausoleum of Augustus, Fountain of the Porto di Ripetta and Flaminian Obelisk in Piazza del Popolo in that walking order. Your group follows a fictional search for Bernini’s lost chisel, Vero Colpo, while encountering these real places. Notice the mausoleum as part of the outing without treating the game’s events as an account of its history. Plan any separately arranged visits independently of the walking activity. Share the current clue with your companions and compare interpretations before answering. The story provides a reason to keep exploring together, while the route offers changing surroundings to look at between the game’s decisions and tasks.

Would your group prefer a detective story?

Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Rome follows a case from Monumento a Vittorio Emanuele II to Pantheon and Trevi Fountain. Choose it if your companions enjoy an investigation to discuss rather than the lost-chisel quest of Secrets. Both formats connect real locations with a fictional activity, but the kind of challenge you follow differs. Agree on which premise will interest the whole group before selecting a game. During the walk, each player can offer a possible explanation or question a first answer. That makes the story a shared conversation, with the phone carrying the prompts while your companions bring the ideas and observations that help you decide how to continue together.

How do the price and phone formats compare?

Both adventures cost €19.95 per team, take around 1.5 to 2 hours and allow up to four players sharing one phone. Secrets runs in the browser on your own phone without an app; Sherlock Holmes uses the free Loquiz app. You can start daily at a flexible time, and the purchase remains valid for 12 months. Choose a suitable space in your plans for the walk and the activity. Read prompts aloud or show the screen so everyone can follow the chosen story. Different interpretations can make the next response a group decision, keeping each player involved while the city provides the places encountered along your route.
