Did it with my 8-year-old son and we still discovered new things after a week in Chania. You don't need to finish to have a great time.

Is there a time limit to complete the game?

The Unlock the City adventures are designed to last approximately 2-3 hours. Since the experience is self-guided, you can take breaks, spend extra time at certain locations, or move through the riddles more quickly, it’s completely up to you! Please note that you have 3 hours from the start time to return the bag.

The Taste & Play experiences are designed to last approximately 4 hours.

Who are these experiences for?

Pithia adventures are designed for anyone who loves their city, or wants to fall in love with a new one. Whether you're a couple looking for something more memorable than dinner, a group of friends chasing a shared experience, a family wanting to make travel genuinely interactive, or a team that's done enough boardroom bonding, there's a game for you.

No prior experience needed. No special skills required. Just curiosity, good company, and a willingness to see the city differently.

Is the game adapted to children?

Both games are designed to be engaging and accessible for all ages. The mix of exploration and challenges makes it genuinely fun for kids aged 6 and above, as long as they're accompanied by an adult. Our experiences are a great way to get the whole family moving and thinking together.

And yes, little ones are welcome too. Our youngest ever player was just 9 months old!

What should I wear for the Unlock the City Adventure?

We recommend wearing comfortable shoes and dressing according to the weather conditions, as the game involves walking. Make sure to choose an outfit that allows you to move easily and enjoy your adventure without discomfort.
