    Had So much fun playing while exploring the city

    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!

How we check reviews

These reviews were left by players on Google and other review sites and are copied from there as they are, with their source.

Where does the memorial appear on the route?

Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Queenstown passes St Peter's Anglican Church, then the War Memorial and Williams Cottage. These real places give the walking route settings to notice while the detective case provides a separate fictional challenge. At the memorial, let its commemorative purpose have your attention rather than treating it as part of that fiction.

A quiet pause can belong in the outing without needing to become another task. Once your group is ready to continue, share the next instruction on the phone and return to the investigation. You can combine following a game with noticing real places respectfully as you explore Queenstown together.

What will your companions do while playing?

Your team solves riddles and photo tasks in the free Loquiz app on one shared phone. At most 4 players follow the Queenstown activity without an accompanying guide. Read the question aloud and compare ideas before deciding how to answer together.

Friends can discuss different possibilities while walking, a couple can reason through a challenge side by side, and colleagues can share a problem outside their usual setting. Let the discussion move around the group even when one person carries the device. Giving each suggestion time helps the fictional case remain a shared activity alongside the real surroundings on your route.

What should your team plan before beginning?

The game costs €19.95 per team and lasts 1.5 to 2 hours. One phone serves at most 4 players. Choose your shared device before starting, and allow enough space in your day for walking as well as solving. Any additional visits can have separate time around the activity.

You can start whenever you want, every day, and the game is valid for 12 months. Pick a moment that works for your companions and your visit to Queenstown. Open the app ready to share the questions and follow the fictional investigation together, while giving the real places you encounter the attention appropriate to them.
