    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 we check reviews

These reviews were left by players on Google and other review sites and are copied from there as they are, with their source.

Which detective game passes the museum?

Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in London passes The British Museum during a detective outing on foot. Its wider central London case takes you from The National Gallery past Piccadilly Circus towards Big Ben. That gives your group a real city setting while a fictional investigation provides the activity.

Consider the museum stop part of the walking game, with any independent museum visit arranged separately. You can look around at the place and then return to discussing the case as you continue. The outing can appeal to people who like sightseeing but also want a common task, with different ideas to compare between the destinations they encounter.

What is the other London story?

Secrets of London asks you to help Horatio Nelson recover his lost spyglass while exploring London’s landmarks and corners. Its route includes Eleanor Cross, followed by York Watergate. This exploration game offers a different premise from the detective murder case, so choose it when that story interests your group.

The phone setup also differs. Secrets of London runs in the browser on your own phone with no app, while the detective game uses the free Loquiz app. Decide which activity you want before setting out so you follow its own route and story. Both give your group something to share while exploring, but they do not promise the same stops.

What do the London games cost?

Either game costs €19.95 per team, takes 1.5 to 2 hours and allows at most 4 players on one phone. Starting is flexible every day, and the purchase is valid for 12 months. You can choose a time that fits the group’s other plans in London.

Reserve the game duration as its own activity, keeping separate visits to sights outside that time. Agree who will join and which phone you will share. Once the game begins, help everyone follow the information by reading and discussing it together. Whether you choose the lost spyglass or the detective case, the activity works through the ideas your group brings to a shared walk.
