Nice, but fix code retrieval issues - The Game is great,once you're over the hurdle of downloading. the app, and having the code accepted. I bought a groupon, and the code retrieval via viator was a nightmare. I had to reach out to customer service, because the app didn't accept my code. Fix this issue, and you will have more buyers. The LGBTIQ+ city game was great as such, maybe include more Trans/Intersex info, if possible. I also didn't like the fact that the Lesbian heroine was branded "a liar" at some point- maybe rewrite and make her more like a classical heroine. Cool would be, if the male protagonist maybe would fall in love with a queer character at some point (or some interesting plot twist), but.. it was already quite good, much better than I expected.

Game was good, could use improvements - I enjoyed the tour and the historical information provided. I also really liked the areas of covent garden and soho that the game took me through. If anything I would have appreciated more historical information. On a few of the puzzles it was unclear to me what I was being asked for. I did find the download and access process to be a bit convoluted and didn't particularly care to have to download multiple apps to get to the game.
