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.

Why include the town hall in a game outing?
The town hall is at Langestraat 97 in Alkmaar and is included in all three city games described here. Look at the building in its street setting before continuing your chosen activity. It gives your walk a civic landmark alongside churches and other sights on the routes. A game connects these sightseeing moments with something your group shares. You might enjoy discovery puzzles, a murder case to discuss or an outdoor formula pursuit. Decide the theme with your companions before setting off, so the town hall becomes one part of a wider walk where everyone has a common activity to follow together.

Which routes connect the town hall with Alkmaar?
Secrets of Alkmaar passes the town hall during a walk with puzzles, photo tasks and city stories. You see Grote Sint-Laurenskerk before the town hall and later the cheese market area. Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Alkmaar also passes the building, following a case from Canadaplein. Its route includes Wildemanshofje before De Waag, then Grote Sint-Laurenskerk and De Molen van Piet. The Alkmaar Syndicate (outdoor escape game) passes the town hall too, pursuing Magnus and stolen formulas from Canadaplein towards the Waaggebouw. You encounter Canadaplein before the church, then Hofje van Splinter and Hof van Sonoy while sharing that outdoor story through the city streets.
What should you arrange with your team?
The Alkmaar games take 1.5 to 2 hours and cost €19.95 per team. You use one phone with the free Loquiz app. Secrets and Sherlock Holmes allow at most 4 players per team; The Syndicate allows at most 5. Check the themes and these limits with the people joining you before deciding what to play. You may begin whenever you want, every day, and the game stays valid for 12 months. Agree on a convenient time to meet and allow the playing time within your visit. That leaves flexibility to arrange a shared walk with friends, your partner or colleagues alongside your other city plans.
