Malaga Self-Guided Detective Murder Mystery Game

About this experience

The Plaza de la Constitución in Malaga is where the investigation opens, a short walk from the cathedral. The trail runs past the Teatro Romano and the walls of the Alcazaba, with the Castillo de Gibralfaro on the hill above. This is a detective game on foot, and the old centre of Malaga is the ground you cover. The centre is walkable and mostly flat, although it rises towards the Alcazaba, so pick your pace on a hot afternoon. Families with children, groups of friends, couples and colleagues all fit the format. A team is up to four people with one phone between them, larger groups split into teams, and playing solo is fine. Nothing here depends on a guide, and no start time is fixed for you. How to play. Four steps put you on the trail in Malaga. 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 question digital characters whose stories do not line up. The route passes the Museo Picasso and the market hall at Atarazanas, and by the time you reach the Museo Carmen Thyssen the suspects have come down to a handful. Several teams playing at once means a scoreboard, so this works as a teambuilding activity as much as a day out. Take a break in the shade, pick up where you stopped, and settle the case somewhere in Malaga.
