About this experience

The starting point is the Rathaus in Duisburg, with the Church of Our Saviour a few steps away, and from there the route drops down to the water at the Innenhafen. Along the quays you come past the Museum Küppersmühle before the trail turns back inland. It is a self-guided murder mystery game, and the case is worked out while you walk. The route in Duisburg mixes the harbour front with a stretch of ordinary city streets and none of it is steep, so families with children, groups of friends, couples and colleagues all manage it, and one player alone can as well. A team is four people at most, sharing a single phone, and a larger group splits into teams that go their own way. There is no guide and no fixed moment of departure. How to play. There are four things to do before the first clue in Duisburg. Book the City Game. Check the instructions email. Download the Loquiz app. Start playing whenever you like. The murder of Balthasar is the case in hand. You decode messages, complete photo tasks and press digital characters whose statements come apart when you compare them. Near the Lehmbruck Museum and around the Theater Duisburg, every puzzle that falls into place shortens the list of suspects. Several teams playing at the same time turns it into a competition, which is why it works for teambuilding as well as for an afternoon out. Stop for something to eat, come back to the trail, and close the case in Duisburg at your own…
