“It was a lot of fun. Unfortunately we could not answer a question because there was a festival in the park and we did not come to the grounds. At the beginning we got nowhere, because we were already asked about the killer. Have briefly contacted the organizer and we were helped immediately. The tracks were just right far apart and the questions well put together. Unfortunately, it poured out of buckets, but this did not harm the experience.Auto-translated”
