Solve a poison plot while exploring Malaga’s cathedral, Alcazaba, and old center in a two-hour augmented reality city game.
“Overall a fun experience. Due to the time constraints of the game, you do have a tendency to miss the sights of the city, if that is something you are hoping to do while on your mission. At times, the I pad was a little difficult to use, but the premise is fun!”
Explore Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter through a flexible ghost-hunt app with puzzles, audio stories, landmarks, safety tips, and practical advice.
“Great tour/idea. Do not start it after 10pm, Bcn is not safe enough to wander the Gotic as you have to complete the tour. It does feel slightly overpriced for what you get compared to a walking tour but I will definitely continue using the app”
Explore Toledo’s medieval streets with an offline puzzle game linking Zocodover, mosques, synagogues, swords, and the Alcázar.
“Signing on & downloading the App only took a few minutes. The directions on The Quest were easy to follow, and the information was fun, although the translation to English was a bit off sometimes. A little more historical info would be better. The Quest took us to the highlights of Toledo, and we saw everything we wanted to see (from the outside). Plus the Quest took us through winding alleys which was a lot of fun. It was a very hot day, so being able to take breaks when we wanted was great. Although we did not finish the Quest, we wanted to read the information for the last…”
Solve clues through Madrid’s Inquisition past in this flexible, offline city game with Plaza Mayor, San Miguel Market, and more.
“I went to the pickup point and nobody was there. I waited for a for about a half an hour and still no one showed up. Very disappointed!”
Solve clues through Seville’s Old Town, from the cathedral to local corners, in a flexible offline game lasting about 80 minutes.
“Finding places that we would never find on our own. Discovering little known nooks and crannies in the twisty streets of Seville.”
A door, a street, a phone or a dinner table.
