Birthday present - 5 it is a nice app and good experience to visit the city in a different way. We arrived from the airport and straight to play. With the app you know things that I believe just waking the street you won’t find out. Highly Recomend the game

A great family moment - Superb ride on the theme of the true story of the Little Mermaid. My 11 year old daughter got into the game and guided us over 4 km, the best way to see lots of well-known and little-known monuments in a fun way.

Absolutely fabulous, highly recommend - We loved following this Questo in Copenhagen. Saw things we'd never have seen without Questo. Enjoyed the back story that accompanied the treasure trail. We'll definitely use this again when we visit other cities.

Great game to explore new cities! - we were in Copenhagen for a short weekend to visit the Christmas markets. As it was our first time we didnt know what else to explore, so this game was the best thing we did! we loved how entertaining it is, it gives insights into history and architecture, allows you to stop for a break whenever. the game is really easy and walking very doable for anyone. totally recommend! i will do more of these in other cities now.

Great tour on your own - Absolutely a great game to see the great spots in Copenhagen. Great directions, and a challenge in each spot to focus on the sight. Our 12 year kid, enjoyd it very much. There were spots we wouldn't have thougt of. Good money value

Nice and entertaining - It’s a nice and funny way to explore the city. Also you get some backgroundinformation from some points. I liked that you could pause the game and have a look at the surrounding close to the goals. Once the description was not clear, but this could be a problem of the language. (We played in German) The background ans historical information could be a bit more but it was okay. We played quite a long time and had much fun!

This was a great way to... - This was a great way to get around a city you aren’t familiar with but I wish it wasn’t timed. If you forget to hit pause you have to start over or go back to the last stop. But all in all it was cute

Misspellings throughout - ruined the experience! - Gutted! This experience was terrible, spelling mistakes throughout. Asked to enter the answer Agnete, with a double tt - even though that’s not what is represented on the plaque. Not sure what four letter animal ends in a “d” either. No faith in the game by the, what a waste of time!!!
