What Cabo San Lucas players say
★★★★★
it was a fun experience. I have done scavenger hunts before but this had a bonus of a storyline to keep you engaged. could have had more interaction with the environment but it was cool the few interactions we did have. took us to the main spots of the city but could have been more expansive. fun story line.
★★★★★
I really enjoyed it! yes it’s true that there are only 3 (optional) challenges that involve actually looking around and using your surroundings but the rest are all solving riddles once you arrive at a certain location. they were challenging but not overly hard. was a fun date night idea!
★★★★★
it was a fun walk with lots of little puzzles and word games. some easy and some kinda tricky. I wouldn't say it would be great for a toddler but anyone 12+ could probably have fun with this game as long as they like to do the 2 main things involved here (walking and words)
