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.

What detective experience can your group play in Bern?

Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Bern is a self-guided murder investigation taking around 1.5 to 2 hours. Your team follows the game on one shared phone, with everyone able to help interpret the information. A theory can prompt another player to ask whether it fits a different clue. This treasure hunt Bern suits friends, a couple, relatives or colleagues who like a task during an outing. You explore without a guide directing the discussion, choosing your own approach and keeping each person involved as you work through the case on foot together.

Which places give the old town route its setting?

The walk runs from the Bundeshaus past the Zytglogge towards Münsterplatz and Bern's old town. Heiliggeistkirche von Bern is also among the route stops you see while playing. These places give your investigation surroundings beyond the phone screen. Look around between moments of reading and comparing ideas so the walk remains part of the experience. Your own group follows the self-guided game at its chosen pace. Share the current explanation clearly and hear another interpretation before continuing, giving each companion a part in following the murder case through the route together.

How do your app, price and starting time work?

You can start whenever you want, every day, with validity for 12 months. A treasure hunt Bern can therefore fit around your own small group's arrangements.

Make the information available to everyone and decide jointly, keeping the investigation shared throughout your time exploring on foot.
