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 does the exploration game include the city hall?
Secrets of Gouda begins from the Markt and includes the city hall, Sint-Janskerk and Willem Vroesenhuys along its route. The activity combines exploring with puzzles, giving your group a common purpose between the places you see. The city hall is one stop in that wider outing.
Take time to look at the building rather than immediately reading the next instruction. Different companions may be interested in different parts of the walk, so it helps to give the sight its own moment. You can notice the city hall from outside during the activity and plan any separate visit independently of the game.
Had great fun playing secrets of Haarlem!
Which game offers a detective route past the building?
Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Gouda takes you past De Goudse Waag and Sint-Janskerk, then the city hall and Museum Gouda. You follow a detective case through the centre, using the investigation to bring the route together. Choose it when a continuing mystery appeals more to your team than the exploration game.
Both activities are self-guided and use the free Loquiz app on one phone. Up to four players can form a team. Before choosing an answer, invite everyone to explain what they think. The device can be shared in practice as well as in name, with reading and discussion changing hands during the walk.
What do the two options cost and how do you start?
Both games cost €19.95 per team and take 1.5 to 2 hours. You can start whenever you like, every day, and each purchase is valid for twelve months. Choose the kind of activity you want, agree a day together and have the free Loquiz app ready on your team phone.
If your plan includes extra time at the city hall or other places, leave room for that separately from the game duration. A clear shared plan helps companions with different interests enjoy the same outing. The route supplies places to see, while your chosen puzzles or investigation give you something to do together along the way.
Do both games pass the city hall?
Yes, it appears among the stops of both routes.
How many people can play together?
Up to four players share one phone per team.
Does the walk include an interior visit?
No city hall admission or interior visit is specified.
Can we choose a date later?
Yes. Each purchase remains valid for twelve months.

Gouda Is Not Just a Cheese: What to See in the City Itself
Gouda beyond the cheese: the stained glass of the Sint-Janskerk, the free-standing town hall, the weigh house, stroopwafels and the candlelit December evening.
