Yes. The stories are mystery-thriller, not gory, and the puzzles suit ages ~10 and up with an adult. Younger detectives love reading clues and spotting suspects. One pass covers the whole family on one phone.

Most cases take 1–2 hours and cover 2–3 km on foot. There's no timer — pause anytime for food, drinks, or to argue about who did it, then pick up exactly where you left off.
