The first mystery we tried to solve was not solvable. The puzzles don't tell you anything about the city. You are sent to certain locations to unlock new puzzles. But there is no real interaction with the place. And the place you've visited has nothing to do with the story. You can play the story like that in any city. We would have liked to know more about the city or more about secret places, sights, curiosities of the city. Therefore, unfortunately, no recommendation.

It is entertaining and you make legs up and down the steep streets of Gijon. The puzzles entertaining and accessible to the whole family, in the end somewhat messy, but meets expectations.
Fantastic way to see a city you don’t know and have fun!

We didn’t know what to expect but am pleased to say we really enjoyed playing the game and had a good laugh. It gave us a chance to see parts of the city we wouldn’t have otherwise explored and it was really convenient that we could do it at our leisure, allowing us to take a break and have a drink or something to eat at places we spotted along the game. We would definitely do this again in other cities/countries we visit if it is available in different places.
