Frequently asked questions
What does the Jewish District quest explore?
The route introduces places and stories connected to Berlin’s Jewish residents before and during the Second World War. It is a puzzle-led city experience, not a substitute for a memorial visit or guided education tour.
Is this experience self-guided?
Yes. The Questo app guides you from clue to clue, with no guide or fixed start time. You can begin when it suits you and pause along the way.
How many accesses does our group need?
Classic quests sell access per device and player. Each person who wants to solve clues on their own phone needs their own access.
