Einstein's Zurich: The Boy Who Walked With Time
Zurich, 1884. You are Marcel, a curious 6-year-old spending your summer near St. Peter’s Church. But today, the clock has stopped, thunder rumbles in the distance, and a strange man with kind eyes and a violin asks for your help.
You guide him through the city’s cobblestone streets, unaware that he’s Albert Einstein—long before he’ll change the world. As you walk, he teaches you to question time itself, solve mind-bending puzzles, and see the universe in a new light.
This walking adventure is a story of wonder, science, and connection—perfect for families and curious minds. But beware: by the end, you might discover that the greatest mystery… is you.

La misión: Tu historia en Zürich
Zurich, 1884.
You are Marcel, a curious 6-year-old who spends your summer days playing near St. Peter’s Church. But today, something feels different — the clock has stopped, storm clouds are gathering, and a peculiar man with kind eyes and a violin needs your help.
You offer to guide him through the city, unaware that this man is none other than Albert Einstein — years before the world will know his name. Together, you solve strange puzzles, ponder time and light, and uncover secrets hidden in plain sight.
But the biggest secret of all may be your own. Because by the time the clock strikes again… nothing will be quite the same — not even you.
