Thanks for the fantastic review! I'm so glad you enjoyed strolling through Soho and uncovering the incredible stories of London's music legends. It's awesome to hear that the adventure appeals to both die-hard Rock n Roll fans and those just looking for a great walk through music history. Hope you'll join us for another adventure soon!
This is a great way to learn about the impact Soho had during the Rock n Roll years. We learnt some fascinating facts as we solved clues along the route. This is a great tour to do with friends or family. Rock on!
Thank you so much for your great review! We're thrilled you enjoyed uncovering Soho's Rock 'n' Roll legacy while solving clues along the way. It's always more fun to explore history with friends or family, and we're glad this quest made it a memorable experience. Hope to see you on another adventure soon!
Three of the quests were impossible to solve, 2 of them because the plaques weren't there anymore and the other one because the shop was closed. The idea is very nice but the enigmas weren't really challenging, we got bored fast.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience — and we're really sorry to hear about the issues you faced. Sometimes, real-world locations do change unexpectedly (like missing plaques or closed shops), and we do our best to update quests as soon as we’re aware of these changes. Your feedback helps us spot and fix these faster — so thank you. As for the challenge level, our quests vary widely in style and difficulty. Some are light and fun, while others are more complex — we’d love to recommend a more challenging one if that’s what you’re looking for. We really hope you’ll give Questo another shot — and feel free to reach out so we can guide you to a better fit.
The question were hard and we got lost. Couldn’t find a plaque. We didn’t finish the quest. Great idea. Some interesting places.
Thanks for your feedback! 😊🏙️ Sorry to hear some questions were too tough and that you got lost. We always aim for a balance of challenge and fun, so we’ll take this into account. Glad you still found some interesting places! 🚀🧩 Hope you’ll give another quest a try!
Good fun. Interesting and informative. Easy to use app. Couldn’t find the Argyle pub clue but enjoyed finding the rest.

I've done this game previously but didn't remember the clues or where we went. I've done a few of these and personally think this is one of the best. Clues are not too difficult that you have to struggle to get them and the information on the app is great so you learn something you didn't previously know about the rock'n'roll era. Everyone really enjoyed doing it
Thanks for sharing your experience with us! 🌟 It's awesome to hear that you found our game to be one of the best in your book. We're glad the clues hit that sweet spot where they're not too challenging but still keep the excitement flowing. And isn't it cool when you stumble upon new information and stories from the rock 'n' roll era? 🎸🎤 We're over the moon that everyone had a blast and enjoyed the adventure. Here's to more unforgettable journeys and musical discoveries ahead! 🗺️🎶🎉
We had great fun. The game took us to Soho. We were doing the game at dark which makes a challenge harder but still managable with hints. Very informative. We could have some insight what we did not know before.
Great to see that you enjoyed exploring London Rock and Roll City with Questo. Thank you for sharing your review. Hope to see you explore more games with us
