About this activity
Solve a Sherlock Holmes–themed murder mystery while exploring Koblenz's streets in this self-guided, app-based detective game. Combining puzzle-solving, hidden clues, and story-driven challenges, it transforms the city into your personal crime scene and works equally well for solo players, families, or groups of friends.
Am Plan, the square in the old town of Koblenz, is where the case is handed over, with the Liebfrauenkirche standing just above it. The clues lead out through the lanes of the Altstadt and down towards the Deutsches Eck, where the Mosel runs into the Rhine. It is a detective game played on foot and without a guide, using the streets of Koblenz as the board.
The old town is flat and closely packed, and the walk to the water is short, so the route stays comfortable for families with children and for colleagues who did not dress for a hike. A team is up to four people sharing one phone; if you are with a larger group, take a ticket per team and let them run separately. Solo players do fine. Nothing is scheduled and no guide is waiting, so the hour is yours to pick.
How to play
Getting under way in Koblenz takes four steps:
- Book the City Game
- Check the instructions email
- Download the Loquiz app
- Start playing whenever you like
The case is the murder of Balthasar. You break codes, complete photo tasks and collect statements from digital characters who each shade the truth a little. Beside the Basilica of St. Castor one of those statements is undercut by a detail you photographed earlier, and the route back past the Florinskirche is where the last gaps close.
With more than one team on the case it becomes a race to the correct name, which is why it works as a teambuilding activity as much as a day out. Pause for a drink by the water, take it up again later, and finish the investigation back in the middle of Koblenz.
