Solve a deadly crime case around Dubai’s creek using our mobile app to guide you through a series of food tastings & cryptic puzzles!
This game is run in collaboration with Wander with Nada. It is designed to be played independently using your mobile device without the presence of a tour guide.
- Play solo, as a couple or as a group of friends.
- Choose any day to play that you prefer, and if you need to switch it around, we can do that for you!
- Bond with your fellow players through an exhilarating half day activity. On average groups take 4.5 to 5 hours to finish the game.
- We recommend starting the game between 10AM and 5PM on Saturday-Thursday and between 2PM and 5PM on Friday to ensure restaurants and shops are open. Last start time is 5PM. Some stops critical to the game may close after 10PM.
- Solve clues sent right to your mobile phone or tablet as you progress through the crime case. You have 3 tries to crack each clue before we help you out — but every wrong try leads to a points penalty. The more points, the more street cred you have as undercover agents.
- Follow a trail peppered with historic, cultural and culinary information that will give you a virtual tour of the city as you crack the case.
- Eat your way through Old Dubai in order to solve the clues! The cost of food & beverages ordered is not included in the game price and must be purchased separately, approx. AED 80.00/person (if 4 players sharing the food) to AED 180.00/person (if only 1 player.)
- Vegetarians don’t fret! The game has vegetarian options at every food stop.
