Review Body: This is such an awesome program. I brought 3 primary school kids with me and they had a good time. We stopped in between for a spot of lunch as we did the walk at 1130am.
Joo chiat is truly a hidden gem and kudos for bringing me to places I would never have been as a Singaporean.

Review Body: We took part in the MONOPOLY: HIDDEN Singapore - Katong-Joo Chiat as a family and had a mixed experience.
One location felt unwelcoming, as staff did not assist and gestured for us to leave. The Monopoly sign was also totally blocked and hidden behind another sign, making it very hard to find and causing confusion.
However, we also had a great experience at Tatsu Maker Works, where the owner was very friendly and patiently explained everything.
Overall, clearer signage and better staff awareness would improve the experience.

Review Body: It was nice to explore Katong and Joo Chiat but just a pity that’s few of the places we were asked to try were closed. Would have preferred an experience that had more fun things to do and also more interactive rather than just walking a circle.

Review Body: The whole experience at MBS was interesting. Lots of leg work which is good. Allowed us the opportunity to explore MBS, probably in a way we never would have thought of otherwise. Went to place is MBS I’ve not been to and found shops that otherwise I would not have known were there except otherwise by googling up.
The estimated 2 hours is a good timing for the whole game at a normal pace, Ofcourse if it was a real competition definitely pace would be faster. But the 2hours was enjoyable with significant brain juice being used. The clues were pretty good thought not very straight forward. And to add to that, a free drink was thrown in as well. Awesome wholesome experience at MBS. Thank you Seek Sophie. I have already recommended your game to colleagues and friends.

Review Body: Best way to learn more about the neighbourhood with yummy hidden FnB stops to find! Fun and interesting experience to do with a group of friends to go around hidden spots in SG to answer clues and learn a bit of history in each location! Instructions were very clear and all you need is a charged phone, walking shoes and a fun group of buddies to do this with. The clues really tested our brains a bit- it was not that easy! I loved the FnB stops and the little surprises / perks that came with it
I would definitely do this again in another neighbourhood! Only setback was that I wish we had more indoor spots because it was very hot to walk outside
I highly recommend bringing a fan

Review Body: Might be biased but this best outdoor adventure game SG has to offer
Spent an afternoon learning about Singapore’s history & getting lost… but in a good way.
Most scavenger hunts that have educational elements feel forced and the lesson takeaway often put a weird brake on the momentum of the adventure.
With hidden sg, there wasn’t even a small remnant of these problems! The game was so well planned and all the pieces fit in in such a satisfying way!
Highly recommend this for any group looking to bond
The highlight was definitely getting to interact with the local vendors that were woven into the trail.

Review Body: Hi! Tks to the team , we enjoyed ourselves today at Holland Village Escape Game. The only issue was one of the pit stop, we got stuck for a while but we managed to get it correct in the end after some digging to find the original stall that used to be there. But it was fine. The game design is fun and tells me more about Holland Village which I never knew ! We cleared all 12 clues on our own!

Review Body: Such a good experience! Had a couple of hours to kill and was browsing what to do in Holland Village. Did this with a friend and we were pleasantly surprised by the whole experience. Would definitely recommend this to friends and we're looking at other locations to explore too. Plus there were some surprising freebies/deals so it's so worth the money!

Review Body: I had more fun than I expected to on this outdoor escape game - the cat theme and historical educational aspects were really fun, and it was pretty funny walking around Holland V figuring out the clues with a bunch of friends

Review Body: A very enjoyable activity for us and our two kids. Clues given by Void Deck Cat was good and once we solved a clue, we were also sent educational information about a particular place or person significant to Holland Village.

Review Body: Enjoyed the corny jokes and it’s not difficult, just required some patience. Great if you and friends would like to enjoy an outdoor puzzle hunt in an air conditioned place. Avoid weekends because it can get crowded.

Review Body: Instructions were easy to follow and we learnt more about the neighbourhood I’ve been living for the past 10 years. The last clue was really hard though. Took us some time.
