Great - Best way to discover the city! It felt like America Express but without the cameraman.
Will definitely try other games as well.

Quiet walk in the cemetery - Not only the tour is interesting, but you can enjoy some time away from the noise of the city. I went there during the summer, so the weather was perfect.
Regarding the game, it is quite fun, but the clues are confusing towards the end.

A must do! - One of the most interesting and mysterious places in Bucharest. A Romanian version of famous Pere Lachaise in Paris. It's a place full of history, art and beautiful stories about Romania's important personalities.

Bellu cemetery questo - I wouldn t have explored a cemetery if it wasn t for the quest.This quest was e thrill,making you enjoy every step of the process of finding a new mistery.What i would recommend the developers is to make the journey more accessible by either developing a map /saying in which part of the quarter the grave is located(left front corner/middle etc)

Funny and cool walk in the cemetery - It was a great experience to share with the kids! They led the quest and it was a really fun way to learn some interesting facts about people that used to live here. We enjoyed it very much and we are looking forward for a new quest !

Best outing - Best choice we made when we realized the parks would be too crowded. The clues were just difficult enough to give us satisfaction when solving them but not too much to make us give up. The stories are interesting and entertaining and relate not only to famous Romanians but to some interesting characters from abroad as well.
There is a map of the lots at the entrance and we enlisted the help of the caretakers as well. That only added to the fun as we circled the place under their puzzled looks.

Great fun! - Really enjoyed this! A great way to have a nice walk, visit Bellu cemetery, solve interesting puzzles and learn about famous Romanians: Henri Coanda, Mihai Eminescu and others.
My girlfriend and I did this in a sunny Sunday afternoon and we really enjoyed solving the puzzles. Took us about 1 and half hours to solve the mysteries. The clues are really smartly created, not to difficult, but challenging. Oh, and don't be fulled by the fact that the place is a cemetery. Who would want to go there, right? Well, it's actually a work of art, you'll be impressed, trust me.
It's a way better choice than the mainstream tourist attractions! I highly recommend it!
