So much fun and got to explore the city and learn things!
discovered more about Melbourne and its history and enjoyed the time together.
Such a fun way to walk around our city. Discovering changes to the landscape and hidden gems we’d not seen before. All while having a lot of fun solving a murder mystery. #bloomfieldadventures #bloomfieldtravels
Fun way to spend an hour or so walking around the city, solving mostly simple puzzles and learning a bit of grizzly history.
We had a great time wandering Melbourne tonight learning about some of its more interesting and unspoken histories. We both loved the mix of history and the fictional story that led us on our journey. Thanks so much to the creators for a great adventure.
So much fun, great hints and a really enjoyable storyline. A great way to spend the summer afternoon! ☀️👍

my kids and a friend and had lots of fun looking about the various architectural style and perfect length for my kids
A nice self guided walking tour. Entertaining puzzles to solve. interesting information provided. Although we spent a while searching for captains cooks statue cause it was unfortunately removed for restoration when we went. Some of the walking instructions could have been a bit clearer but overall a great experience.
I got lost a couple of times because I didn't read the instructions properly
