    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 does the cathedral connect with the games?

Secrets of Hanoi passes St. Joseph’s Cathedral during an exploration game that begins on Dong Kinh Nghia Thuc Square and winds through the old quarter. Its route also includes Hanoi People’s Committee Building, Ngọc Sơn Temple and The Huc Bridge. The Hanoi Syndicate (outdoor escape game) includes the cathedral under the name Nhà Thờ Lớn Hà Nội, followed by Phố Hàng Trống, Hoàn Kiếm Lake and Ngõ Bảo Khánh. That mission follows Magnus and stolen formulas outdoors in the streets. Choose between the discovery game and the pursuit according to your group’s interests, keeping any interior cathedral visit as a separate activity to organise independently of play.

What does the detective adventure add?

Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Hanoi follows a case through the Ba Dinh quarter, from Ba Dinh Square towards the lanes by Truc Bach lake. Its route includes Ba Dinh Square, Vườn hoa Mai Xuân Thưởng, Đền Quán Thánh and Cửa Bắc Catholic Church in that sequence. This gives your group a detective investigation to discuss as you explore. Pick it if your companions enjoy considering clues and comparing explanations rather than following a discovery walk or outdoor pursuit. Decide which activity appeals to everyone before setting out, then let the selected story guide your shared decisions while you notice the city around you during the walk.

What are the price and phone requirements?

All three listed Hanoi adventures use the free Loquiz app, cost €19.95 per team and take around 1.5 to 2 hours. Secrets and Sherlock Holmes allow up to four players sharing one phone; the Syndicate allows up to five. You can start daily at a flexible time, and the purchase stays valid for 12 months. Leave room in your plans to enjoy the route and the story together. During play, make sure everyone can see or hear the current prompt. Each player can then suggest an answer or question an interpretation, keeping the adventure collaborative instead of leaving all decisions to the person holding the phone.

Secrets of Hanoi passes it, and the cathedral also appears on the Syndicate route.

Can we choose a detective case?

Yes. Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Hanoi explores a case through the Ba Dinh quarter.

How many can share one phone?

Do we need an app?
