Maastricht's Knights: Self-Guided Exploration Game

This is a self-guided exploration game crafted by a passionate local storyteller and played outdoors, on the streets of Maastricht. You will explore the city across 13 iconic locations while following a medieval quest about three knights. At each location, you'll be solving a real-world puzzle by searching for clues on various elements such as monuments, graffiti, and facades. The game is mainly focused around the historic architecture and landmarks in the heart of Maastricht-Centrum and includes many locally known facts that simply cannot be found in a guidebook or a browser search.

Starting from the Basilica of Our Lady, the stops are spaced an average of around 250m apart, with each location taking around 8 min to complete. The route also passes through Nieuwenhof Gate, Natural History Museum and Vrijthof Museum. At every stop, the app unlocks a new chapter and guides people to the next location.

DISCLAIMER: You will explore by yourself using the Questo app on your phone. No physical guide or strangers will be involved. The full route covers approximately 3.1 km and takes around 1h 39min to complete. You can play it any day, at any time. Languages available: EN, NL, DE, FR.
