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 route leads to Piazza San Marco?
Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Venice takes you from Chiesa di San Paolo over the Rialto bridge to Piazza San Marco. Those places give your detective outing a real setting, with the fictional murder case providing a common activity to follow as the walk continues through Venice.
At the square, give the surroundings some attention before returning to the game. Your group can enjoy reaching a place together while still having something to consider afterwards. The route supplies destinations and the investigation supplies conversation between them. It can suit people who like sightseeing to include a shared task, rather than spending the whole outing deciding independently where to walk next.

How does the detective activity work for a team?
You use the free Loquiz app on your own phone, with at most 4 players sharing one team. The game is a detective murder mystery played on foot through Venice, keeping the case common to the group on a single device. Each person can contribute an interpretation without following a separate screen.
Share what the game presents before deciding on your approach. Reading aloud and explaining a suggestion can bring different ideas into the discussion. A couple, friends or colleagues may enjoy thinking differently while still investigating the same story. Keep the choices open to everyone so the activity remains a group outing, even when one person is looking after the phone along the walk.
How much time should you leave for the walk?
Allow 1.5 to 2 hours for the game, which costs €19.95 per team. Starting is flexible every day, and your purchase stays valid for 12 months. Choose a moment when the people joining you can give the activity enough room in their Venice plans.
Keep independent sightseeing visits separate from the game duration. Before starting, agree which phone to share and confirm that the team has at most 4 players. Once you begin, let the actual places and the fictional case have attention in turn. The route connects your destinations, while your group’s ideas help make the time between them part of the experience you are sharing together.
Does the route reach Piazza San Marco?
Yes. The detective walk leads from Chiesa di San Paolo over the Rialto bridge to the square.
Which app is required in Venice?
You use the free Loquiz app on your own phone.
Can a couple play together?
Yes. At most 4 players form one team on one phone.
Do we need a fixed departure?
