We dropped to follow the route after 4 stops, because 3 of the stops were so poorly made/made no sense in neither the "in game" timeframe or "real life" timeframe, that we just had to give up. Examples: the answer to a question were equal to number of floors on the tallest building in a square. Answer was 6. The tallest modern building was actually 9 floors, and the tallest building in the time setting of the game was 4. No coherence...”
