★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 111 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $24Our pick

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!”
