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!

How does the square connect with central Auckland?
Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Auckland leads from the Town Hall and Aotea Square up to Albert Park. These real settings give your group places to see while the fictional investigation supplies a shared problem. The square becomes part of a walking exploration rather than only another point on a sightseeing plan.
Look around before returning to the next instruction on your phone. A pause to notice a real place belongs in the outing without needing to become another task. If you want independent sightseeing as well, plan its time alongside the game so the walking investigation has room for exploring and solving without trying to include every other visit inside its duration.
What do you pay and when can you begin?
The Auckland activity costs €19.95 per team and lasts 1.5 to 2 hours. One phone serves at most 4 players. Decide on your shared device and companions before starting, and allow space for walking as well as discussing the challenges. Additional visits can have separate time around the game in your day.
You can begin whenever you want, every day, within a validity period of 12 months. Select a time that fits your group and your visit to Auckland. Open the app ready to join the case together, giving the investigation time of its own while the real settings on the route offer places to notice between the questions as you continue on foot.
How do your companions join the detective work?
You solve riddles and photo tasks in the free Loquiz app on one phone during the Auckland game. The activity is self-guided, without an accompanying guide leading your group. Read each challenge where everyone can hear it and compare the ideas before choosing an answer together.
A partner may interpret a question another way, while friends or colleagues can suggest several approaches. Let those suggestions enter the conversation even if one person carries the device throughout. The phone holder can share the instruction without making every decision, keeping the case a group activity while the real surroundings offer more to notice between the fictional investigation's questions than only the next solution on the screen.
