Operated by City Game · Sharm El Sheikh, South Sinai Governorate
You step off the waterfront promenade and the city shifts into a stage: sunlit alleys, bright market stalls, and the layered hum of Red Sea tourism provide the backdrop as you tap the first clue on your phone.
This self-guided Sherlock Holmes game converts Sharm El Sheikh’s urban corners into puzzle sets—photo tasks, codebreaking, and suspect interviews delivered through the Loquiz app. The story centers on the murder of Balthasar, and each solved riddle opens the next neighborhood scene.
Sharm sits at the southern Sinai tip where Bedouin trade routes met modern resorts; the town’s growth over the last 40 years means you’ll move between old-market grit and later tourist boulevards. Geologically, you’re on a coastal plain facing the Gulf of Aqaba, with the Red Sea’s coral reefs visible offshore and the desert ridges rising inland.
Expect local color—Arabic signage, seafood vendors, and shopkeepers eager to practice English—and practical logistics: the game runs on your phone, takes about two hours, and is family-friendly. Play starts whenever you like, at your own pace, and groups of up to four can share a device.
Plan for heat, battery drain, and crowds: download the app and map before you go, carry a charged power bank, and pick morning or late-afternoon slots to avoid peak sun and tourist traffic. Wear comfortable walking shoes and bring a small amount of cash for snacks or purchases along the route.
This is a low-impact, urban exploration that rewards curiosity and observation—an active way to learn the city’s corners while exercising deductive skills.
