The questions were quite hard to answer so I suggest you click to the question quickly so the time counts down as you admire the site. Good for getting around to see different areas in the city! We did have to use our phone gps to assist in finding the areas as the map on the app did give us some difficulty!

Hi Rhonda,
Thanks so much for playing and for sharing your experience! We're glad to hear you enjoyed exploring the city — that's exactly what we hope to inspire with every quest.
We appreciate your tip about checking the question early — smart move! Some puzzles can definitely be tricky, and we're always working to strike the right balance between challenge and fun. Also, thank you for the feedback on the map. We're currently working on some improvements to make navigation even smoother in future updates. Hope to see you on another Questo adventure soon — maybe in a new city next time!
Overall great experience, although a couple of clues were not very well explained, and one, we couldn't find the location at all! Maybe it was removed?
All in all it was worth it though, really fun way to explore a city.

Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear that you had a great experience overall. We apologize for any confusion with the clues and the missing location. Please send us an email with more details at care@questoapp.com - we'll review and improve the clues for better clarity, and we'll also investigate the missing location issue. If you have any other questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to let us know.
This is not worth my time waste of money. We were expecting that the game will guide to go to different point of interest but we were stuck in one area only.

Hello, Thank you for providing your feedback and sad to see that you had issues with the locations. We would like to get more details about what you have experienced so we can get to know what went wrong and prevent this from happening again. Kindly reach us at care@questoapp.com. Hoping we can make it up to you and enjoy your next game with us.
Man kommt auf jeden Fall gut rum in Nürnberg. Es ist sehr viel Geschichte vor den Rätseln und die Rätsel relativ kurz. Wenn die Rätsel etwas länger wären, würde es glaube ich noch mehr Spaß machen.
Response from Host, May 2026
Vielen Dank für das tolle Feedback! Es freut mich, dass du durch das Spiel viel von Nürnberg sehen konntest. Deinen Hinweis zu den Rätseln und dem Geschichtsanteil nehme ich gerne mit auf, um die Balance für zukünftige Quests noch besser zu machen. Hoffentlich bist du bald wieder bei einem unserer Abenteuer dabei!
Besser ist es nicht den Wegbeschreibungen zu folgen, sondern mit der Map zum nächsten Ort zu finden, denn die sind wirklich nicht eindeutig. Die Rästel sind zum Teil auch nicht gut formuliert. Dennoch hat die Tour eine Route über alle wichtigen Orte.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts! We're glad to hear you appreciated the tour's route through all the important places. Your feedback about using the map instead of the directions and the clarity of some puzzles is valuable and will help us improve the experience. If you have any further suggestions or need assistance, feel free to reach out. Enjoy your future adventures!
Een zeer leuke manier om de stad te ontdekken en de rijke geschiedenis te leren. We ontdekten dingen die we uit eerdere tours nog niet wisten.
Response from Host, Aug 2023

If you're ever up for more exciting discoveries, we're here to help you embark on new adventures. Happy exploring and learning! 🏙️🕵️♂️🗺️
Nicht brauchbar, entsprach nicht unseren Vorstellungen. Vermutlich war eine Baustelle „im Weg „. ——————-…………——————……..
