2.Maastricht Self Guided Sherlock Holmes Murder Mystery Game

★★★★★★★★★★3.5 · 6 reviews

Use the Loquiz app to investigate the murder of Balthasar in Maastricht. Follow clues from Markt, solve codes, meet digital characters, and complete photo tasks during a roughly two-hour walk. You can play alone or share one ticket with up to four people, at your own pace.

“Sehr schöne Tour durch die Stadt, pfiffige Aufgaben, lustig. Leider zu wenig Bezugnahmen auf die tatsächlichen Gebäude oder Orte, z.B. richtige Hausnummer finden, Aufschrift an Haus etc. Dann wäre es noch realistischer. Beispiel: Wenn ich in einer Altstadtstraße stehe und das Spiel sagt mir, dass ich in einem Park bin, dann stört das irgendwie. Ansonsten ein tolles Spiel, das viel Spaß gemacht hat.”
