Like an Escape Room, but instead of one Room, it goes over a whole City. The adventure usually starts somewhere in the center. At the start, you will discover the first clue. When you solve that puzzle, it points you to the second challenge. Each challenge will be a bit more difficult than the last one. And the final station will be the hardest. You have to find all the station to succeed. And the clues can be anywhere: A particular piece hanging in a gallery. A hidden message on a tape in a record store. A code between the lines of a graffiti. This app will help you on your way. It shows when you’re close to a station. And you can control some installations. To start, gather a team of 2-4 players. Each player shuld be equipped with the app on his phone and charged batteries. All trails are open 24/7. Good luck.
