The experience was nice, it mixes the story with real informations about Venice and makes it light ti explore the city with kids that get motivated by the game. The starting point could be explained slightly better, and the translation of the tour in Italian was quite bad considering that we’re in Italy, but apart from that we had quite some fun in solving it.
Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re glad the game made exploring Venice fun for your kids. We appreciate your feedback about the starting point and translation—we’ll work on improving both for future players. Hope to see you on another quest soon!
The game is a great way to explore the city, visit major landmarks and learn about their history while also solving a fun mystery. Would highly recommend it!
Thanks so much for your kind words! We're thrilled you enjoyed exploring Venice through the mystery and landmarks. Appreciate the recommendation!
I think that this was a fun little activity. We did it in a pair and we went around solving the little riddles and exploring the city. I think kids and families would enjoy this the most, becasue the story is entertaining and you also learn a little history by solving very easy puzzles.

Great place, very clean and stunning location on the canal. Host provided drinks in the fridge and snacks as well!

The Quiz was very good. It was understanded and the questions were okay. We have fun and have need for the tour 50 minutes.
Thanks a bunch! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed the quiz and had fun. 🎉 Your support means a lot to us!
A great way to see the city on your own schedule. Just make sure you have Wi-Fi on your phone, otherwise it is useless, even if you download it before hand. But for the money, it is definitely worth it.
Thank you for sharing positive experience with Questo. We are grateful that you enjoyed the game. Hope to see you explore more games with us.
This is an app based guide wrapped up in a childish story that is barely believable. We anticipated something more challenging and adult.
Hi! We regret to know that the game did not meet your expectations. If you can provide more details about your experience by sending us an email to care@questoapp.com that would be appreciated. Thanks!
The game is well explained and the puzzles are easy to solve. Children can also be involved. Especially in Venice with its many alleys we have nevertheless come to the next challenge without detours.

Different type of sightseeing, perfect for introverts as it doesn't require any human interaction. ;) Nice story and riddles although it's hard to follow when accompanied by small children.
