Bryggen Bergen: walk and solve

Bryggen is a waterfront area in Bergen known for its wooden building fronts. It gives your game outing a streetscape to look at as a whole, rather than only a single monument. Take time to compare the shapes and details that catch different companions' attention before returning to the phone. Seeing the setting together makes the sightseeing part of the outing social too. The game supplies a continuing story through the city, while your own group chooses the pace. Plan any additional visits independently and allow extra time around the activity if you want to explore further.

Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Bergen passes Bryggen on a detective walk from the Ludvig Holberg statue towards Bergenhus Fortress. It gives your group a case to investigate while moving between real city places. The Bergen Syndicate (outdoor escape game) also passes Bryggen, following Magnus and stolen formulas. That walk goes from Vågsallmenningen past Bergen Domkirke towards the wooden fronts, with Fløibanen also on its route. Choose the investigation if your companions enjoy a detective story, or the pursuit for an outdoor escape activity in the streets. Either gives the sightseeing walk a common objective to discuss together.

The detective game allows at most 4 players per team, while the outdoor escape game allows at most 5. Both cost €19.95 per team, take 1.5 to 2 hours and use the free Loquiz app on one phone. Match the story to your group size and choose the device before beginning. Everyone can contribute to decisions even when one person is reading. You can start whenever you want, every day, and the game is valid for 12 months. Leave separate time for other Bergen plans so the self-guided activity remains one flexible part of your day.
