I have to start by saying that I did the "quest" because one of my very young friends insisted, but to my surprise I enjoyed it a lot. It was a very pleasant and interesting walk, with a mix of information about history, while discovering various styles of architecture. For people that are closer to their 50s - my case - this is something you can do with the younger generation that is not just fun, but also educational (I cannot help myself :)). Why? Because it offers small pieces of friendly information that gives you an image of the communist times - so it's perfect for a week-end walk, for instance. And, if one would like to dig further, you have quite a list of topics to read about after this exploration game, while enjoying a coffee. It ends near by a number of quite good coffee shops. So, yes, if you are a young person, I witnessed first hand how much my young friends liked it. If you are a parent, you will enjoy to do it with your teenage/ young adult child.
