This is hands down one of the best urban games I've ever played.

Published on Feb, 2025

This was one of the highlights of our visit! The route and riddles are thoughtfully designed, standing out from the typical "count this, count that" tasks you often find in similar games. You genuinely have to look around and notice details you'd normally overlook, which is awesome! I highly recommend it—10/10 for anyone visiting Plovdiv! As a tech enthusiast, I also have to applaud the fantastic web platform for entering answers. It's intuitive, user-friendly, and I really and i love the fact that you can get hints if you need ( well, they reflect on your end score, but still it was a lot of fun!) I truly hope Vutresehn Glas creates more urban games for tourists—I can't wait to try them on my next visit!

Great activity!

Great experience with fun riddles! We really enjoyed the walking route and the questions were a lot of fun! 10/10 would recommend.

The best self-guided tour of Plovdiv out there!

Published on Apr, 2023

This was such a wonderful, fun and educational experience! I completed the quest together with my partner who is English, but even I, originally from Plovdiv, learned so much! The Roman history of the city is so rich, there is so much to explore and this game is the best way to do it! The flow of the puzzles was reallly like no other and the organisers are fantastic people. You wouldn't want to miss out!

Cool riddles, fun and adventure

Published on Feb, 2023

The game took me and my friend through the best parts of the city center of Plovdiv and I also learned a lot about its history. It's a great way to discover the city's secrets while solving some pretty cool riddles! I did the tour during the night and it was very nice, so I think it's suitable for any time of the day.

10/10 would recommend

Published on Feb, 2023

It was quite pleasant to get to know the less obvious history behind some of Plovdivs historical sights while partaking in a well integrated digital adventure. The websites design was also beautifully crafted and easy to unterstand. We had a fun afternoon walking around Plovdiv while simultaneously solving all kind of different and sometimes challenging riddles.
