You do not need to download an extra app. You have 1 year starting with your purchase time to play the game.

While solving the puzzles, you move at walking pace in the area between Viktualienmarkt, Odeonsplatz and Frauenkirche. The game ends near the Old City Hall. You will find clues for solving the riddles at well-known sights, information boards, etc.

Game start and duration:


You can start the scavenger hunt at any time. You can also, for example, book access now and start the scavenger hunt with your team at a later date. In total the game takes about 2 to 3 hours. There is no time limit, but it is possible to measure the time using the integrated stopwatch. You can also take a break in between and continue playing afterwards.

What you need:


You need a smartphone with internet connection. A second cell phone for navigation is helpful, so you don't have to switch tabs between puzzles and navigation. If you play in the dark, it's best to take a really good flashlight with you.

We accept a variety of payment methods. For bank transfer, please plan at least 7 days in advance. With all other payment options, the game will be activated immediately.
