Fine way to discover the city - The game led us to the most beautiful places of Amersfoort and ‘forced’ us to take a good look at the surroundings. We liked to have to solve riddles each time (we chose the challenging version) and also to learn more about the city and about Mondrian through the game with short and clear messages (listen and/or read immediately). We found it the ideal way to discover this beautiful city!

Super fun way to be interactive. - Super nice way to visit a city and also nice that you could read the assignments on all 4 of our phones, that makes it interactive for the whole family! We will definitely do this more often in other cities also because this is the only way to get the kids along!! Highly recommended!

Outside Escape in beautiful Amersfoort - Amersfoort is a very beautiful city, the route was very fun and the puzzles were challenging enough (we did the challenging version) but not so difficult that it causes frustration). Also very nice that the environment was incorporated into the puzzles.

recommended - It was a very nice escape, but sometimes it was difficult to figure out what the intention was.
But you can do it by reading and watching carefully.
A nice way to visit the city.

And then finish on the terrace

Nice, but not worth the price. - Nice first introduction
We had bought the city escape for a small price, we were happy with that. We would not find the original price of 25 euros worth it. The puzzles were fun, but if you also want to see something of a city this is not suitable. You watch veek on your phone with walking and especially with 2 people on 1 screen it is not easy to solve puzzles (with lots of daylight on your screen). For us a nice introduction to a city escape, but no repeat.

Discover the city in a fun way! - The outside escape city game was a lot of fun! The assignments were great and the walk through the city was beautiful, you discover Amersfoort in a totally different way. We chose the challenging variant, those assignments were easy to do, we liked them a little more difficult.

Perfect way to discover Amersfoort! - We had both never been to the center of Amersfoort. The tour was a fun way to discover the city. The puzzles were challenging but achievable, which made it fun :)
