Do I need a tour guide, or is this truly self-guided?

Completely self-guided. After you book, you'll receive instructions via email. Use your phone's GPS to navigate between puzzle locations. No guide, no group meetings—you play independently on your own schedule.

Can I start the game whenever I want, or at a set time?

You book a date, but you control the start time on that day. Begin whenever suits you—morning, afternoon, or evening—no fixed meeting point or tour time required.

How many people can play on one ticket?

One ticket covers one group of up to 4 people sharing one device. Groups larger than 4 need to purchase additional tickets; each ticket = one device/one group.

What if I get stuck on a puzzle?

The supplier doesn't specify built-in hints, but you'll have puzzle instructions and clues within the game. Contact details for technical support are typically included in your booking confirmation email.

Is the game possible in bad weather?

Most of the experience is outdoors in Bruges' medieval streets. Light rain is manageable, but heavy rain or storms may make photo tasks and navigation difficult. Check weather forecasts and consider rescheduling if necessary.

Will I learn real history, or is it just entertainment?

Both. The game weaves genuine local history, culture, and verified facts about Bruges into the puzzles and narrative. It includes stories and 'secrets' even locals may not know, making it educational as well as fun.
