Ciudad Juarez Self-Guided Detective Murder Mystery Game

About this experience

The case in Ciudad Juárez opens outside the Cathedral of Ciudad Juárez and moves straight onto the Plaza de Armas beside it. From the square the route runs through the old centre and on to the Museum of Revolution in the Borderland, close to the river. It is a self-guided murder mystery game played on foot, and the old centre is where it happens. The ground in Ciudad Juárez is flat and the blocks are short, so moving between stops takes little effort, though the middle of the day can be hot. It suits families with children, groups of friends, couples and colleagues, and there is nothing against playing alone. A team is up to four people around one phone, with larger groups splitting into more than one team. No guide comes with the game and no start time is set. How to play. The practical side is short: a phone, an app, and you are on your way. 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 at the places the game points to, and take statements from digital characters who cannot all be telling the truth. The trail passes the Monument to Benito Juárez, where one version of the evening loses its footing. Send out more than one team and the walk becomes a competition, which is why it works as teambuilding as well as a day out with friends. Stop for a meal, take the trail…
