The only negative I have, and it is very minor, is the story line is a bit cheesy and could have been better tied to the quest points. The quest was fun, and the challenges to solve were well done, varying from easy to needing the extra hints. The historical info was interesting, and if you take the time to read the gold plaques on buildings as you go, you'll learn even more. At the price point, this was a fantastic value.
