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 square during the game?

Plaza Mayor is a square in Madrid that you can see while playing either of the featured city games. Take in the surrounding buildings before going back to the phone. The difference in scale between an open square and the streets around it gives your group something to notice beyond the current game decision. Let everyone look around, then continue when you are ready. A self-guided activity makes those choices yours, helping you combine sightseeing with a shared story. Plan any additional visits separately so the walking game has the space it needs within your day in the city.

Which Madrid activity would you prefer to share?

Secrets of Madrid starts on Puerta del Sol and leads you to Plaza Mayor with puzzles and photo tasks. You see the square, Calle Mayor and the Pontifical Basilica of San Miguel along its route. Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Madrid also passes Plaza Mayor on a detective walk from Puerta del Sol towards the Royal Palace. Its route includes the Temple of Debod. Choose the exploration game if varied tasks appeal to your group, or the murder mystery if you want an investigation to discuss. Both turn a walk through Madrid into something your companions can work on together.

What do both games require from your group?

Both Madrid games use the free Loquiz app on one phone per team, cost €19.95 per team and last 1.5 to 2 hours. A team can have at most 4 players, so a couple or a small group of friends can share the activity. Agree on the phone before you begin, then let everyone contribute ideas while you walk. Being self-guided means your own group sets the pace instead of following a guide's timetable. You can start whenever you want, every day, with validity for 12 months. Leave additional time around the game for other things you want to see or do in Madrid.

Where does the exploration game start?

Secrets of Madrid starts on Puerta del Sol and leads you towards Plaza Mayor.

Does the detective walk include the square?

Yes. Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Madrid passes Plaza Mayor on its walk towards the Royal Palace.

What app will our team use?

Both listed Madrid games use the free Loquiz app on one shared phone.

Can we choose the starting time ourselves?

Yes. You can start whenever you want, every day, and the game is valid for 12 months.
