A cobbled lane opens into a quiet square; the river tugs at the quay and a brick tower watches as you tap your screen. This self-guided exploration game turns Montfoort’s compact historic centre into a live puzzle board — a blend of detective work, local lore and measured walking. You’ll follow GPS prompts, answer riddles, take photo tasks and piece together a final mystery while the town’s narrow streets and canals push you forward.
Montfoort’s stone houses and defensive earthworks reflect a medieval past: the town received city rights in the 14th century and still wears its layered history in visible bricks, canals and lanes. The low-lying polder landscape and canal network are geological reminders of the Netherlands’ battle with water; culturally you’ll pass churches, municipal buildings and quiet squares where local life continues uninterrupted.
Practical and portable, the game runs on the Loquiz app and needs only a charged smartphone and an internet connection. Expect roughly two hours of steady walking on flat, paved surfaces with frequent stops to decipher clues. It’s suitable for singles, couples or small groups (one device per group up to four people) and works year-round—start whenever you like after booking.
To get the most from the experience, arrive with comfortable shoes, a power bank, and an openness to ask locals brief questions (they often hold the best hints). The route rewards curiosity: small alleys, an inconspicuous plaque, and a canal-side bench are where the town’s secrets reveal themselves.
moderate.
2 hours.
Suitable for most fitness levels; requires light walking and standing for short puzzle-solving stops.

No — it’s self-guided and designed to be played without a local guide; some clues reward asking brief questions of passersby.
You select a date/time when booking, but you may begin whenever you like on that day — the game is flexible and pausable.
Much of the centre is on flat, paved streets, but cobbles and narrow passages may present challenges for some wheelchairs or strollers.
Montfoort was granted city rights in the early 14th century and retains medieval street patterns and defensive features that reflect its historical role in regional trade and governance.
Stick to public paths, avoid trampling greenspaces and carry out any litter; small historic towns depend on low-impact visitation to preserve masonry and canals.
City Game operates guided outdoor trips and adventures with an emphasis on safety, stewardship, and memorable experiences.
