Things to do in Namur: walk and solve

Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Namur runs from the TreM.a museum towards Place d’Armes and Pont de Jambes. Église Notre Dame de l’Assomption and église Saint-Jean-Baptiste de Namur also feature along the route. The city gives your detective case its surroundings while your phone supplies the information. If you are comparing things to do in Namur, this offers a walk with an activity your group can keep discussing between places. Let everyone follow the story and look around as you go, keeping both the case and the route part of the same shared outing rather than all attention remaining only on the screen throughout your time exploring the city together on foot.

The Namur game allows at most four players to share one phone. Each person can read the information and offer an interpretation of what it means. Friends or colleagues can bring several ideas to the case, while a couple can make the walk a joint investigation. Give everyone time to understand the story before your team decides what it thinks. You guide yourselves and choose the pace on foot, keeping the activity in your own group’s hands. Sharing the information throughout the route helps the phone become a common tool for everyone, with the mystery remaining a conversation rather than something only its holder follows as the rest of the team explores the city alongside them.

Allow around 1.5 to 2 hours for the Namur game, played through the free Loquiz app. Its price is €19.95 per team: one phone, at most 4 players. You can start whenever you want, every day, within the game’s 12-month validity. When arranging things to do in Namur around other plans, give the complete walking case room in your day. Choose which phone your team will share and agree when to begin. The flexible start leaves that choice to your group, with the detective story providing a defined activity to follow together as you explore the route on foot at a pace your team chooses for itself through the city.
