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.

What does the alternative puzzle tour offer?
Secrets of Basel is a self-guided walking tour with puzzles and photo tasks lasting 1.5 to 2 hours. Its listed points include Basel Marktplatz, Peterskirche Square, University of Basel Entrance and Heuberg Street. Those stops give the activity a different route from the detective walk that passes the fountain. You play in your own phone’s browser, with no app needed. Choose it if your companions would enjoy practical tasks to share during their exploration. Agree on the experience before beginning, then let that selected game lead the walk. Its own places and tasks provide the common focus while your team spends time together outside in Basel.
How do a team price and flexible start work?
Each Basel game costs €19.95 per team for at most 4 players using one phone. You can start whenever you want, every day, within 12 months of validity. Pick a day with your companions and make room for the full playing time in your plans. Friends, couples, families or colleagues can all use the small team format for a shared city activity.
