Good walking and talking time - We found the walk really enjoyable. We did this a family with two older teenagers and they were both really engaged and they are a tough audience. A great way to see the hidden gems of the town. It certainly took us off to parts we might otherwise not have seen. We took our time and enjoyed the stops along the way so took us over 4 hours but it was all manageable. A great day out.

Fabulous way to explore the city - A great way to spend a couple of hours exploring a new side of Sheffield. We had a fabulous time solving the clues around the city, it was well executed via WhatsApp and we enjoyed the pub stops within the game. Highly recommend!

A great way to spend an afternoon - A great way to explore the city in a totally unique way. You see parts of the city that you never knew were there, or you took for granted. The format works really well on WhatsApp, is really flexible and the built in breaks (if needed) were perfectly timed. A really enjoyable experience and we would highly recommend!

Excellent adventure - Really good way to explore the city. The clues were difficult enough to keep you engaged but not too difficult that it was stressful. Plenty of breaks that you can take as long as you want on so you can really take this at your own pace. Includes some great landmarks and sights around Sheffield.

Great experience - It was a great way to see Sheffield. Managed to fit 2 pub visits en route. The clues were very clever but not too difficult and no prior knowledge of the area was necessary. The only negative was that the finish was nowhere near the start.

See Sheffield a little differently - Seeing all the main areas of Sheffield and the Kelham Island Tavern which was a great real pub. Places we would not have visited

Been there... had fun... didn't get a t-shirt! - Great way to see the city, exploring routes we wouldn't otherwise discover. A challenging and fun experience that got us thinking at the right level. Between the two of us, we solved the mystery, all through WhatsApp texts. A little confusing at times when you need to scroll to previous messages etc. It's a shame there was nothing at the end of it as an achievement souvenir to say we've done it or compare our timings to other players :/

Brilliant game ideal for families (if not young kids) - Wonderful tour around our home city visiting parts that we'd never seen before. The clues (if you read them carefully!) Are just the right level of challenge. The only criticism I'd have is that it's a really long walk back to the start from the end!

Awful - Sensible clues, a map of Sheffield streets, less reliance on the customer's knowledge of IT - a learning from participants who have difficulties ALL would help. It wasn't fun - it was frustrating.
