Frequently asked questions
Who is this great for?
Perfect if you love fairytales, want a whimsical date, or want a walk that feels like stepping into a storybook. Also awesome for families with older kids who enjoy myths + exploring.
What’s this quest all about?
You play as a kid who doesn’t believe in fairytales — until you get to Copenhagen to visit your grandma and hear a strange voice guiding you. Along the way, you meet enchanted creatures from Andersen’s stories and Norse legends, and you follow clues to magical spots like Amalienborg, the Little Mermaid statue, and hidden corners sprinkled through the city.
What magical / scenic spots will we pass?
You’ll see places like the Royal Danish Theater, Amalienborg Palace, Christian Andersen’s house, The Little Mermaid statue, plus statues like Agnete and the Mermen, fountains, and charming corners you’d normally walk past.
Is it good for a magical date with someone special?
Yes. It has that dreamy fairytale feeling. Strolling by the water, solving fun clues together, enjoying views at sunset… It's one of those walks that sparks conversation and memories.

Fairytale landmark
The real monument behind Copenhagen’s famous mermaid story
Copenhagen’s Little Mermaid sculpture was unveiled in 1913, inspired by Hans Christian Andersen’s 1837 fairytale. It sits at Langelinie beside the harbour and has become a durable symbol of the city. The quest’s magic is fictional; the literary source and the waterfront landmark are real. Playable languages: German, English, French, Dutch.
