It was a nice try with riddles that needed some thought and were not totally dummy. The cover story was not anything special and the hidden stories of the city were not that intriguing but I guess this might not have been the creators fault. It was a nice guided tour to see the city.

We liked the game to get to know the city. The different hotspots were highlighted thanks to a beautiful storyline. You will be guided through the story from location to location with a handy directions. Each location was also thoroughly described. It's a shame the game didn't work on the day we planned the game. The app kept telling us to load the game, so we couldn't play. A day later, the game worked perfectly.
Bedankt voor je eerlijke en uitgebreide review. Fijn om te horen dat jullie het spel leuk vonden en dat het verhaal en de route hebben geholpen om Toulouse op een leuke manier te ontdekken. We begrijpen dat het frustrerend was dat het spel op de geplande dag niet werkte – onze excuses daarvoor. We zijn blij dat het een dag later wel goed verliep en hopen jullie snel terug te zien voor een nieuw avontuur.
Stumbled on this while my wife and I had a random free hour in Toulouse - honestly wasn't sure what to expect but ended up enjoying it. We ended up seeing more of the city than expected. Fun mix of puzzle-solving and sightseeing. Definitely beats just regular wandering around! Would play another 👍
It’s awesome that you had a fun and unexpected experience. Glad you enjoyed it and we’d love to be part of your next exploration!
