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 can the gallery fit into your game plans?
Manchester Art Gallery is an art gallery on Mosley St in Manchester, passed by both featured walking games. It can be a sightseeing stop during the activity without becoming your only destination of the day. Take a moment to look at the building with your companions, then decide when to continue your story. If you also want a separate gallery visit, organise that independently and leave additional time around the game. The walking activity connects several city places, while other visits can have their own place in your plans. Your group remains free to balance playing with looking around.

Which Manchester game would you rather share?
Secrets of Manchester passes the gallery on a self-guided walk with puzzles and photo tasks. You see St. Mary's Catholic Church and the John Rylands Research Institute and Library along the route, with Manchester Cathedral also part of the walk. Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Manchester passes the gallery too. Its route brings you past Manchester Town Hall, IWM North and the cathedral while you investigate a case. Choose exploration tasks if varied activities appeal to your companions, or the detective case if you prefer a continuing investigation. Both give your walk a shared purpose between the actual places you see together.
What do you need on the shared phone?
Secrets of Manchester runs in the browser on your own phone with no app, while the detective game uses the free Loquiz app. Both cost €19.95 per team, last 1.5 to 2 hours and allow at most 4 players sharing one phone. Select your story and device before beginning, then make room for everyone's ideas regardless of who reads from the screen. You can start whenever you want, every day, with validity for 12 months. Plan additional visits separately so the self-guided walking game stays a flexible part of your Manchester outing rather than setting the schedule for your entire day.
