Scavenger hunt Oldenburg
"Inferno - Destiny of a city" - The Story
1676 in Oldenburg: A heavy summer storm is coming. Huge lightning strikes start several fires at the same time in the narrow streets. The city is built almost completely of wood. So the fire may spread and nobody can stop it. Now it is up to you, the city council. You must get the people to help and save the most important treasures and documents of the city. A dramatic race against time begins. Will you save Oldenburg from total destruction?
Scavenger hunt Oldenburg: 2 to 3 hours of fun in the old town of Oldenburg
Gameplay:
You will get access data to our secret websites. They are interactive like an app. With this you can start the game as soon as you arrive at the starting point at the Horst-Janssen-Museum in Oldenburg (see map or directions). 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 of the old town between the Horst Janssen Museum, the State Theatre, the Prince's Palace and the Stau Gate. The game ends near the State Theatre. 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.

Ideal team size:
You are more than 6 people? Then we recommend splitting up into several small groups, because otherwise experience shows that not everyone is well integrated into the game.

What you absolutely need to know before booking a scavenger hunt:
You'll have less fun playing if a scavenger hunt has been created remotely using AI and simply guides you through the city using unrelated GPS points, with no regard for the sights.
With us, it's different!

The historical adventure has the right amount of excitement for everyone. Younger children work very well in a team with their parents.

A scavenger hunt in Oldenburg is the perfect way to discover the history of the city in a completely new way. But for the most fun, the right team size is important. We recommend groups of 2 to 6 people. Then each of you can take an active part. In a group of this size, everyone can follow the puzzles. And nobody falls behind when you try to save the city from the coming fire. In teams that are too big, there is often a risk. Some players only “walk along” instead of solving puzzles themselves.
If you come with a bigger group, it is best to split up and start in several small teams. This makes everyone want to win even more. And the hunt for the saved documents gets even more lively when you compete against each other directly. This way, your Scavenger hunt Oldenburg becomes an intense shared experience. Every single person can become a hero. Remember: A well-organized team is worth gold when you put out fires and crack puzzles!
Our scavenger hunt in Oldenburg is the perfect adventure for teams who want an exciting challenge in the fresh air. The “Inferno” story is made for several groups to play at the same time. They can compare directly who saves the city fastest from the blazing fire. A playful competition like this really boosts team spirit. It brings you closer together while you hunt for the city's treasures.
The rescue should stay fair for everyone. And every team should have its own moment of success. So plan a few minutes between the start of each team. Then you do not tell each other the answers in the burning streets. And you do not get in each other's way. A little distance keeps the mysterious atmosphere. And it keeps the excitement high until the happy end.
In the end, the Scavenger hunt Oldenburg is not only about discovering historic places. It is about an intense shared experience that makes your group stronger for a long time. If you start with a little respect for each other, this race against time will be an event you will never forget. Show the flames what real teamwork means before Oldenburg turns to ash!
