    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.

How can you enjoy the church during your game?

Igreja de São Francisco is a church on Rua do Infante Dom Henrique in Porto. Its exterior gives your group an architectural point to notice between moments spent reading or discussing the game on your phone. Take a pause so everyone can look, then compare what catches different companions' attention. This keeps the walk connected to the actual city as well as the fictional activity. Any separate interior visit needs independent arrangements and additional time. The city game is a walking outing linking several places, and your own group decides when it is ready to continue.

Which Porto story fits your interests?

Secrets of Porto passes the church while you join commander Guilherme Gnomes Fernandes to hunt a living blaze in its story. Along the route you see Igreja do Carmo, Hospital de Santo António and Porta do Olival. Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Porto also passes São Francisco, with a detective case described as going from the Câmara Municipal towards the river and Ponte Dom Luís I. Its route also includes Palácio da Bolsa. Choose the fictional blaze hunt if that premise appeals, or the investigation if your companions would rather keep discussing a detective case while exploring together.

How do the phone requirements compare?

Secrets of Porto runs in the browser on your own phone with no app, while the detective game uses the free Loquiz app. Both cost €19.95 per team, last 1.5 to 2 hours and allow at most 4 players sharing one phone. Decide on the story and device before beginning, then let all companions contribute ideas even if one person handles the screen. You can start whenever you want, every day, with validity for 12 months. Leave time separately for other Porto visits so your group can enjoy the self-guided walking activity at its own pace.
