(Translated by Google) It was a lot of fun. The puzzles were great, and they weren't too far apart. I'd love to do it again, maybe in a different city next time. (Original) Es hat sehr viel Spaß gemacht. Die Rätsel war super,und sie waren auch nicht zu weit entfernt gewesen voreinander. Gerne wieder und vllt mal in einer anderen Stadt

(Translated by Google) It only led us to rather expensive bars, and everyone in the group solved the puzzle on their own. It didn't promote group dynamics or cooperation; instead, it resulted in everyone just being on their own with their phones. We therefore ended it early. (Original) Es hat uns nur zu recht teuren Bars geführt und jeder aus der Gruppe hat das Rätsel für sich alleine gelöst. Es hat nicht die Gruppendynamik und Zusammenarbeit gefördert, sondern eher dazu geführt, dass jeder für s7ch mit seinem Handy war. Wir haben es deswegen vorzeitig abgebrochen.

(Translated by Google) These are (some sort of) puzzles that are independent of location. There's absolutely no connection to the city. I have no idea why I should walk through the beautiful silver mining town of Freiberg for this. Therefore, I won't be trying this type of tour in any other city. (Original) Es sind (irgendwelche) Rätsel, die unabhängig von der Örtlichkeit sind. Es gibt keinerlei Bezug zur Stadt. Keine Ahnung wozu ich dazu durch die schöne Silberstadt Freiberg laufen soll. Ich werde diese Art der Tour daher auch in keiner anderen Stadt ausprobieren.
