★★★★★
Fun, gets you moving and brain engaged! Would do again!
★★★★
Fun, but I wish it was more challenging and incorporated the surroundings more. Still a nice activity though.
★★★★
Many of the riddles could have been done anywhere. I think they should have included interacting with or looking at the surroundings more. Apart from that, it was fun!
★★★★
good to get the steps in before a nice meal!
