Such an awesome game! It was such a fantastic way to see the city, and learn history along the way. We are big fans of free walking tours, and this is the next best thing if those aren't available! Shoot, even if they are available this is amazing fun. It's a scavenger hunt through the city to get your legs, and brain working. Highly recommend. You can also find the game directly through the app for cheaper, so keep that in mind!

Very much fun exploring the city in a sort if treasure hunt. We had one day in Sibiu, and the quest worked as a charm. Very engaging, with tid bits of history ! I highly recommend it!

was fun, found everything good

A nice tour through the old town of Sibiu. Except for a few minor translation / description errors, everything was great.

Easy, exciting and the most important thing. We did the tour with our 2 children and had a lot of fun as a family !!

It was such a good way to explore the city given there are no walking tours :) I LOVED it
