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 do you pick up the trail of Nero’s lyre?
Secrets of Bologna asks your group to chase clues and help Nero Claudius Caesar recover his lost lyre. Your treasure hunt Bologna passes the Statue of Pope Gregory XIII first, then the Wishing Well and afterwards Neptune’s Fountain. These places accompany the exploration while the instrument gives your team a shared objective.
The game runs in your phone browser, without an app. Allow around 1.5 to 2 hours. Choose this story if its recovery task appeals to your group. Share the clues and compare your ideas while looking around, keeping the selected search connected with your walk through Bologna at your team's own pace.

Which places belong to the murder case?
Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Bologna gives your group an investigation using the free Loquiz app. You see Palazzo Malvezzi de' Medici first, then Statua di Camillo Cavour and afterwards Fontana del Nettuno. This is its own route and story, separate from the search for Nero's lyre.
Plan around 1.5 to 2 hours and use your own phone. Agree on the detective case before starting so everyone follows the same task. One player can read clues aloud while all players contribute thoughts about the information. That makes the case a common subject during your walk, with your group able to discuss the chosen story as you follow it together.
What are the team conditions for Bologna?
Your treasure hunt Bologna costs €19.95 per team with one phone and at most four players. The same conditions apply to both stories. Decide who is joining you and choose the lyre exploration or detective case. Your selection determines which route and technology you use during the outing.
You can start whenever you like and should keep around 1.5 to 2 hours available. Open Secrets of Bologna in your browser or use the free Loquiz app for Sherlock.
