Step into the story
Find the tubes. Beat him to the key.
Before I died in 1915, I hid the key to my panorama here: one small drawing of the whole circle, every figure numbered, signed.

It beginsHendrik Willem Mesdag. Born in Groningen in 1831, a banker's son who became a painter of the sea.
It goes wrongI marked the way with twelve tin paint tubes.
Your moveMy first tube is on the grand hotel in front of you. The Varnisher was here at breakfast: paint-flecked cuffs, a smell of turpentine, a long black canvas tube on his back.
Secrets of Scheveningen is what happens when a walking route stops telling you things and starts asking. Your own phone, your own pace, the streets themselves as the board.
The game reads your position, so each location arrives with its own riddle, puzzle or photograph to take. None of it can be answered from a screen, what you need is in front of you in Scheveningen, in whatever happens to be standing there. You finish knowing a set of things most residents never picked up.
Among the stops: Kurhaus Scheveningen, Palacestraat and Palace Promenade. What you are hunting for is rarely at the stop itself but somewhere on the way, in something you would have walked straight past.
Foodhall Scheveningen and De Pier are on the list too, and the habit of looking up sets in on its own.
A Self-Guided Tour of The Hague That Asks the Questions
It delivers what a walking tour delivers, a proper route through Scheveningen, and the story behind the thing in front of you, and removes the two parts people put up with: the commentary and the waiting. Here you walk, you look, you work it out. At intermediate difficulty most groups get most of it and disagree happily about the remainder. There are riddles, there is code-breaking, and there are photographs you would never have thought to take.
Had great fun playing secrets of Haarlem!
Planning a Fun Scavenger Hunt in The Hague?
You have found one. It takes a minute: pick a date, open the play link from your email, start when you want. No printing, no hiding things in advance, no list to compile, the route, the riddles and the photo tasks are already laid out across Scheveningen, roughly two hours and 3 to 4 km of walking. A single ticket at €19.95 covers four people sharing one phone.
An Outdoor Scavenger Hunt That Works for Any Group in The Hague
Adults. Nothing about this resembles a printable list of things to find. It runs at intermediate difficulty, the riddles want things read properly rather than glanced at, and two hours passes without anyone checking their phone for other reasons.
Teams. A corporate scavenger hunt that needs no facilitator, no room booking and no scheduled start. Buy one ticket per four people, send the teams into Scheveningen on the same route, and compare who found what. Running several groups at once is what turns it into a competition.
Couples and friends. No umbrella to follow, no group to stay with, no fixed pace. Stop where you like, take as long as you like, and finish knowing things about Scheveningen that most residents never learned.
Families. The distance bothers no child, and the photo tasks are where the youngest players get ahead of everyone. The riddles end up being a joint effort, which is exactly why a group of mixed ages works here.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Secrets exploration game work?
Book a date and a link arrives by email. The play link does the rest. You start it at the first location in Scheveningen, and from there your position drives everything, each stop brings a riddle, a puzzle or a photograph to take, and answering it opens the next stop.
Is this a walking tour or a game?
It is both at once. The route through Scheveningen is the route a self guided tour would take and you learn the same things, except nothing is narrated, you get riddles instead of commentary, and there is no one at the front with a raised umbrella.
What do we need to bring?
A charged phone and shoes you can walk 3 to 4 km in. You get a link when you book and open the play link at the starting point, there is nothing to print, nothing to hide in advance and no equipment to collect.
How long does it take?
Roughly two hours across 3 to 4 km of walking. Nothing counts down. The date is set at booking and the hour is yours, so a group that stops for lunch just finishes later.
How many people can play on one ticket?
Between one and four people share a single phone on one €19.95 ticket. Beyond four, take a second ticket, two groups on the same route can race each other, which is the better way to do it anyway.
Is it hard?
The difficulty is intermediate. The riddles need looking and lateral thinking rather than local knowledge, and nothing is so obscure that a group gets stuck for good.
Is it suitable for children?
Yes. Children manage the 3 to 4 km easily and are usually the quickest at the photo tasks. The riddles are intermediate, so most families work through them together, which is how the game is meant to be played anyway.
Do we need to book a date?
No, only a date. The hour you actually begin is yours, and there is nobody waiting: no meeting point, no guide, no group.
What happens if it rains?
You decide when to play and you can pause whenever you like. If a shower comes over, step inside somewhere, wait it out and pick up where you left off, you pause whenever you like and there is no clock running.
Will we actually learn something about Scheveningen?
It is the whole design. Every riddle sits on something real, the history of Scheveningen, the people in it, the details nobody points out, so you come away with more than a visitor normally does. If a plot appeals more than a route, the other city games in The Hague have one.

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.
