The mission: Your story in Prague

You wake up feeling dazed. You peel your eyes open and see the dreamy blue sky above. The day’s beautiful. Not a single cloud. You linger in the warmth of the sun and think, life is good.

But something’s wrong. What happened? The sky? You look around and realize you’re in a thicket of bushes.

You see the people rushing on the nearby sidewalk. They appear enormous with their thunderous marches and skyscraper bodies. Your breath bursts in and out. What’s happened to you?

Kafka’s Prague context

A multilingual city behind the literary unease

Franz Kafka was born in Prague in 1883 and wrote primarily in German within a city shaped by Czech, German and Jewish cultures. His fiction turns bureaucracy, authority and alienation into unsettling narratives rather than describing a literal supernatural Prague. This quest connects real places from Kafka’s life with literary themes while keeping its own story distinct from his biography. Playable languages: English.
