Couldn’t get it to work at all. No amount of pics and codes would link our purchase to the app. Really disappointed.

Couldn’t get app to link to purchase

Operator response

I'm so sorry you couldn't get the app to link your purchase and missed out on the experience. That sounds incredibly frustrating! For situations where a code isn't working, we actually have an "I need help" feature right on the unlock page. This allows you to bypass the code entirely and unlock the game simply by providing your proof of payment. I'm really sorry you didn't spot or use this feature, as it would have gotten you playing right away. We'd still love to make this right. Please email us at explore@questoapp.com with your booking details so we can investigate what went wrong with your original code and offer you a free quest to give us a proper try!

Good entertainment with the family

The riddles were easy enough but not too obvious. The historical facts were interesting. This was a perfect way for us to get to know Riga.

Mediocre…

While we did get to walk to some interesting locations, we found the quest itself disappointing and sort of unresolved. What was the whole thing about? We solved the last task - and then what? Sure, we found out some facts and legends, but those can be googled these days. So, the question still stands - what was the quest actually about…?

Operator response

Hey, Marta. Thanks for playing and sharing your feedback. Every quest is unique, with their own route, story and puzzles. However, what they all have in common is that they help people explore on their own with their friends and family, with full flexibility and privacy. My instinct tells me that the theme of the quest was maybe not of interest for you, and that's fine. We all have different tastes in music, in movies, and in quests too. For this, I'd love to see you trying another quest soon, maybe you'll like it more.

Lovely!

It was fun and we got to see parts of the city we normaly would have missed. Sadly two places we had to go to are in construction right now so we didn't find one hint cause it was blocked by containers but that's not the game makers fault. All in all we loved it and we will definitely do another one of those in the future

Operator response

Thank you for your feedback! We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the quest overall, despite encountering some construction challenges along the way. Please send us an email with more details at care@questoapp.com so that we can address the issue. We appreciate your understanding, and we hope to see you again for another adventure in the future!

Had a fun in Medieval Riga

The game provided very good overview of Medieval Riga, with interesting spots included. Actually you learn about the history while playing a game. It was a real fun. Some of the riddles were quite complicated, we had to use hints, but the details included in the riddles where amazing and we would never notice them walking in the city on our own.

Operator response

Thanks a lot for your review pasaulescelotaja. Happy to have helped you explore Riga in a fun and educational way. We hope to see you explore more games with us :)
