★★★★★
It was fun. A couple of the voices were a little hokey and we were not smart enough for a couple of clues but it was still fun. I would definitely play another game.
★★★★★
very much and I think there needs to be more clues related to local things
★★★★★
it was a good tour around bergen. I would maybe have taken people round the old part of town though. Only other comment would be to try to link it a bit more with the history of the locations you visit.
