"Mystery - Magic or spook" - The Story

1800 in Cologne: A disaster has happened! It was so wonderful after all! While people were blissfully slumbering at night, strange things were happening: clothes were being sewn ready, beer brewed, bread baked, horseshoes forged.... No one ever saw who performed these mysterious deeds. They were taken with relish as a matter of course. But for a few days now, the magical haunting has been over! The city is in danger of descending into chaos! Will you be able to solve the mystery?

City game Cologne: 2 to 3 hours of fun in the old town of Cologne

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 Rathausplatz in Cologne (see map or Anfahrt). You do not need to download an extra app to play the game. 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 Rhine, Main Station, Offenbachplatz and Martinsviertel. The game ends near the Roncalliplatz. You will find clues for solving the riddles at well-known sights, information boards, etc.

Game start and duration:


You can start the city game at any time. You can also, for example, book access now and start the city game with your team at a later date. In total the game takes about 2 to 3 hours. There is no time limit. 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.

Price and order:


City game Cologne (total price for 2 to 6 players) for only 49,- €.

Payment by Paypal, instant bank transfer (Sofort), credit card or invoice with wire transfer. For invoices with wire transfer, please plan at least 7 days in advance. With all other payment options, the game will be activated immediately.

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. You can also test which group is the fastest! You buy one account for each group (of 2 to 6 people). With several groups you can play with or against each other.

"The city game was really cool! We learned a lot of new things about the city. It was really great to expand our knowledge about Cologne and the history of the Heinzelmännchen. I can only recommend it to everyone."

"The tour was like a treasure hunt through the city, where we discovered many interesting new facts. You see the city in a completely different way, where you would otherwise just walk past it. Really great, we'll definitely do it again in another city!"
