Thoroughly enjoyed waking up the grey cells. Took the oldies to finish it youngsters didn't have the staying power!

Had trouble paying postage but managed to do it and hopefully haven’t been scammed. Watching scammers on tv
We played The Great Game with approximately 30 people split in 5 teams. People loved it ! It was a great way to enable the non-Londoners among us (an overwhelming majority) to discover the city. Quest... See more

Good value but puzzles too hard.
We did the Windsor one. Look, it's good value and a bit of fun. However some of the clues/puzzles are just insanely difficult. It can be so cryptic at times and unless you want to check every answer as you're going you can very quickly get thrown off. Some of the clues are wrong, we were directed in the direction of a sign and walked for quite a while before checking the answers and it turns out the direction was opposite to the sign. There was a part that involved climbing some stairs that were permanently closed/blocked off which meant we had to miss some clues. But in general it was just a little bit too difficult for us to really enjoy casually, and we didn't really see much of the good bits of Windsor or learn about the city at all. It also doesn't end anywhere near the pub that you have offers for! I don't think we would do it again unless the difficulty level was a bit lower, perhaps a shorter distance and it helped us explore the history of Windsor more. If you're a hardened puzzle solver and you're more interested in the puzzle than exploring then this will be great for you.
Fabulous family evening fun.
Fabulous fun for our family. Mum, dad and 12 year old son.
We would spend half an hour on it in the evenings and we made it last months. Great to do together instead of just watching tv.
Such a great brain workout & a chance for everyone to be involved in some way.
Well done for making it so accessible to all.
I think it was lots of fun
We were able to add the numbers up together
Great family fun!
This was great family fun for those who like to solve puzzles. It was a puzzle from start to finish. It was a little tricky to begin with, but once we got the hang of it we were off. It was a unique game that was enjoyed by all who played it.
Really fun experience
Really fun experience, great use of brain power on some of the questions. A great party piece for something different
We had lots of fun!
We had lots of fun! The clues were so clever and varied and just the right difficulty to keep us hooked. Good to have a team with different skills.
Fun and successful team building day
We all had a very enjoyable team building afternoon doing the app based treasure hunt in Leeds. It was great fun and also a good opportunity for people to get to know different parts of the city.
Bryn was super helpful and responded quickly to all of the queries and questions we had in the run up to the day. We would highly recommend!
Perfect Stag Activity
Bryn was excellent and really helpful and supportive. He made a bespoke GPS hunt combining clues with plenty of drinks stops helping our 3 teams of 4 players discover previously unvisited parts of the city.
The clues stimulated conversation and made a great team building activity. I would strongly recommend and will be booking again next time I have a large group to organise.
Did this in Birmingham, pretty fun!
Did this in Birmingham, had a fun experience! The questions were clever and used landmarks and parts or the environment, some were quite tricky. Only negatives: a couple of the markers on the map were either inaccessible due to construction works (of course this was out of the organisers control), locations with poor signal caused the GPS tracker to 'bounce' all over the screen and not registering that we were at the location, or inside of a shop in the shopping centre/mall. I would recommend using more interesting points of interest around the city, but overall a very fun and competitive experience for sure!
Concept is great, lacking a backup route map
Concept is great, and started off working out the clues and makes you really take in your surroundings.
We got stuck on question 9 / 10 and it meant we really had no idea which way to go because the paths were not clear. We checked our answer were correct but it didn’t make sense according to what we could see in front of us. We actually got lost but luckily had signal to use Google maps and we re directed ourselves back to the start point to end our walk.
It’s a shame the pack doesn’t have a map included with the route, so if in any doubt of your location you can check you’re on the correct path and continue your route.
Shame we were not able to complete this.

Fantastic team building and genuinely fun afternoon
The host was really helpful, organised and friendly in planning and on the actual day. Everyone on the team enjoyed it, even those that weren't up for running around
Was ok let down by poor organisation
Treasure hunt was fun and got to see some nice scenery around Bedfordshire. Did find some of the clues to be poorly written (not sure if deliberate though). The biggest disappointment was that the company hadn’t booked us a table at the end pub as stated they would on Eventbrite websites. It wasn’t until the day in the small print on the sheets we noticed it said we needed to book the pub, stupid as it’s meant to be a secret. Poor comms really especially as I had emailed GG treasure prior telling them our start time so they could book a table. Like others have said the pub told us they had opted out of this experience felt a bit conned at that point. Not sure it was worth the money overall.

We played this as a family of four
We played this as a family of four, two adults, eleven year old and a fourteen year old. There was something for everyone to join in with. We had a lot of fun some parts were challenging but that was ok. We ended up doing it over two days but were so excited to get back into it. Would definitely recommend and will buy another one for Christmas to share with the rest of the family to do together.
Great day out
After being letdown by another company I needed a last minute plan for a day out with a friend. I found this the day before and had the pack emailed to me straight away. We had a great day and are already planning another adventure. Thank you!

The format of the puzzle was fantastic and we enjoyed the walk through lesser travelled parts of St Albans.
However as we approached the end of the route there were some key features that were no longer in place on the route. This meant that we struggled to with the last couple of clues and had to rely on the answer sheet.
