Had a great tour with Kristina. Small group and saw quite a bit of the old town
Thanks so much for the lovely review! I'm thrilled to hear you had such a great time with Kristina and enjoyed seeing so much of Riga's old town. Hope to see you exploring another city with Questo soon! - Founder of Questo
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.
Thank you for your lovely review. We’re happy to hear you and your family enjoyed exploring Riga with us. It’s great that you found the riddles fun and the history engaging — that’s exactly what we aim for. We hope to see you on another quest soon.
A great way to explore a new city. Along the way we also saw many things that were on our list anyway
Vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback! Es freut uns sehr, dass Sie Riga auf spielerische Weise entdecken konnten und die Tour auch viele Ihrer geplanten Highlights umfasst hat. Wir hoffen, Sie bald auf einer weiteren Quest begrüßen zu dürfen!
Great fun and a good way of seeing the sights. Great sights too. Would definitely recommend. Me and my wife completes it in September.
Thank you so much for playing Medieval Riga: Quest Experience! We’re delighted to hear it was a fun way to explore the city’s sights, and congratulations to you and your wife on completing it in September. If you return to Riga or visit another city, we would be happy to guide you on a new adventure. We truly appreciate your recommendation.
My friends and I enjoyed our Questo around Riga old town a lovely way to explore. The clues took us to various architectural places of interest and historical moments and sculptures.
Thank you for the great review! We're glad you enjoyed exploring Riga with Questo and discovering its history and architecture. Hope to see you on another quest soon!
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…?
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.
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
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!
It was a very cool way to explore the city. Even the boys listened to the story and remembered some of the historical facts. Loved that there are legends of the city.
That's fantastic to hear! Delighted you had a great time exploring the city with us. It's even better that the boys enjoyed the story and learned some historical facts. Legends add an extra touch of magic to the adventure. Happy memories to cherish! 🌟🗺️🕵️♂️📚🏙️
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.
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 :)
It was a really fun way to discover the city and even have insights to interesting stories of the country. I'm sure we will use this app when we'll visit other cities.
Hi Amaria! We are grateful that you enjoyed the game. Thank you for sharing your positive experience with us. Hope to see you play more games with Questo!
