The Cryptex of Pombal insanely challenging puzzle tour - We recently went on a trip to Lisbon with work. To start the first day we have booked the outdoor escape game "The cryptex of Pompal". This was a challenging puzzle journey through the old heart of the city. We had a lot of fun and definitely recommend doing this with a group if you want to get to know the city in a fun way. Thanks again to our guide / guide Aleksei.

Hidden in plain sight - We've been to this area many times, but we had no idea how interesting it would be to walk around the place, looking at it through the eyes of Marques De Pombal! The last part of the quest - I had to scratch my brains - the authors put their soul into creating it! It's hard to hide something in plain sight - it's obvious only when you find it, but before that - you have to try).

Historical Outdoor Game and Treasure Hunt: "The Cryptex of Marquis de Pombal - This treasure hunt was an incredible experience from start to finish. Aleksei has done a remarkable job with the puzzles, making the whole event feel immersive and challenging. It was a unique combination of adventure, history, and excitement, perfect for anyone visiting Lisbon. What made it even more enjoyable was how engaging the story was, pulling you into a world of mystery and exploration—much like the thrill of playing Car Racing Games, where every challenge keeps you on your toes.

Great experience for quest and Lisbon lovers - I 'm excited with the Lisbon city quest! I'm a huge fan of all kinds of quests—escape rooms, city hunts, you name it—and this one did not disappoint. It was super well put together and made exploring Lisbon so much fun. One of the coolest parts was splitting into two teams, which added some friendly competition and made it even more exciting. The organizer was awesome, everything was smooth and well-coordinated. The materials were really interesting and kept us on our toes the whole time. This quest wasn’t just a great challenge; it was also a fantastic way to see more of Lisbon’s hidden spots. I’d totally recommend it to anyone looking for a fun and unique adventure!

Good idea for a day off. - Had a wonderful time with friends walking around the beautiful places of Lisbon! It was the perfect balance - not too long a walk, but not too fast. It was great looking for symbols while learning a little history. It was particularly impressive that the quest was based on real historical events and locations rather than made up. The performance was of the highest quality and original. Thank you very much!

An interesting quest in the very centre of Lisbon - Interesting experience and a cool experience. It is like a detective story where you are detectives. The tasks are well thought out and non-trivial, you have to think hard to solve them. I liked the quality of the game materials, everything is done on the good conscience. The game took about 2 hours to play, and I think I was ready to play longer!
