Über dieses Abenteuer

Mainz, 1430. The city is on the brink of chaos. As young Johannes Gutenberg, you carry more than ink-stained fingers—you carry the fate of your family’s name and the future of the written word. 

Patricians clash with guilds, and the relic of St. Martin, lost to time, may be the only key to peace. Solve clues hidden in ancient alleyways, follow whispers of history through cobbled streets, and retrace the steps of a legend. 

This outdoor quest is a walking puzzle woven into the fabric of Mainz, where every discovery brings you closer to the relic—and to saving your legacy. Play with friends or family and create a story worth printing.

Höhepunkte

  • Visit St. Stephan's church, home to Marc Chagall's blue stained-glass windows.

  • Learn about one of Germany's earliest architecturally designed ornamental fountains from the Renaissance period and of its connections to the Peasants' wars.

  • Discover the reason why ordinary citizens would hammer nails into a wooden column during WWI.

Die Mission: Deine Geschichte in Mainz

It is the early 15th century, and Mainz is the scene of a struggle between the patricians and the guilds of the city. 

The Gutenberg family risks being exiled, putting in jeopardy the promising printing experiments of young Johannes. Yet, providing the guilds with an ancient relic, passed on by generations of patricians, might quell the strife.

You are Gutenberg himself, on the hunt for the heirloom that was once of St. Martin.
