Molto divertente e interessante, ci ha portato in posti che altrimenti non avremmo pensato di visitare, oltre i più comuni punti turistici. E la storia ha approfondito dei temi di nostro interesse. A volte gli enigmi erano un po' troppo complicati o basati su elementi non più presenti.

The app works well and the sites selected were worthwhile! Even so, many of the puzzles were silly, needlessly confusing, or irrelevant to the historical importance. The storyline was amusing. Players should know that the total time to play the game/ tour the sites is longer than the game estimates. More, you may save money by not doing this through Trip Advisor but instead download the free Questo app and buy similar games from any city for perhaps less!!
