About this activity
A self-guided detective adventure through Enschede where you solve a Sherlock Holmes-themed murder mystery by working through puzzles and clues at your own pace. Combine sightseeing with interactive storytelling using the Loquiz app, turning the city into your crime-solving playground.
The Oude Markt in Enschede is where the case opens, in front of the Grote Kerk on the square. From there the route moves out through the centre towards the Wilminktheater and the Synagogue of Enschede, and further on to the Rijksmuseum Twenthe. This is a detective game you walk yourself, without a guide and without a group to keep up with.
It suits families with children, groups of friends, couples and colleagues, and a solo player can work through the whole case alone. One team is up to four people sharing a phone, and anything larger becomes two or more teams. The centre is flat and open, with wide squares that make it easy to regroup, and there is no fixed start time, so you can begin early or leave it until the afternoon.
How to play
The route from booking to first clue is short.
- Book the City Game
- Check the instructions email
- Download the Loquiz app
- Start playing whenever you like
Balthasar has been murdered and the case falls to you. Codes need to be broken, photographs taken at specific points, and the statements of digital characters compared until the gaps show. Part of that happens near Het Volkspark and part in the streets around the Oude Markt in Enschede, with the suspect list shrinking as the evidence stacks up.
Two or more teams playing simultaneously makes a race of it, which is what turns the game into a teambuilding exercise. Pause for a drink, come back to it, and finish the case in Enschede whenever the last piece falls into place.
