About this quest

Berlin, a city divided by walls and secrets, is your battlefield. Disguised by the hat of the season, you walk among strangers with a mission that could change the course of history. You're not a diplomat—you’re a spy. One pocket holds hope, the other danger. And now, your next checkpoint awaits.

In this immersive quest, you'll walk through the shadowy corners and grand landmarks of Berlin, solving real-world puzzles and decoding clues hidden in plain sight. From the haunting calm of prison parks to narrow alleys echoing with whispers of the Cold War, every step brings you deeper into the story.

Perfect for friends or families seeking a thrilling adventure, this walking quest is a game of wits, movement, and memory-making. The mission is yours. Will you see it through?

What to Expect

This self-guided walking tour in Berlin combines exploration, storytelling, and puzzle-solving into one unique experience. As you navigate through the city, you will discover 14 carefully selected locations, each revealing a piece of the story.

The entire quest takes approximately 10500 minutes to complete and covers 3.3km on foot. You will move at your own pace, with the freedom to pause whenever you want to take photos, grab a coffee, or simply soak in the atmosphere.

Each location features a challenge or puzzle that unlocks the next chapter of your story. These challenges are designed to be fun and engaging while teaching you about the history, culture, and hidden gems of Berlin.

No tour guide needed – your smartphone becomes your guide. The Questo app provides directions, shares stories, and presents challenges along the way.

Highlights

  • Discover the natural and architectural beauty of the once tragic Moabit Historical Prison Park

  • Stand on the bridge that was not only one of the first within Berlin but also divided East from West Berlin in later years

  • See the Natural History Museum and learn interesting facts about its permanent exhibitions

  • Walk along the Berlin Wall Memorial and dive into the past narratives that shapes this space

The mission: Your story in Berlin

You tilt your hat, just enough to shadow your eyes. It’s the perfect disguise in a city thick with tension and smoke. The booming hat industry has done you a favor—no one looks twice. You blend in. That’s the point.

You're not here as a diplomat, even if the papers in your pocket say otherwise. You're here on orders whispered through encrypted channels, passed hand to hand, like secrets in the dark. Your mission: enter foreign territory, make contact, and secure an agreement that could end the war before the next shot is fired.

But this isn’t just politics. It’s personal.

In your left pocket: a sealed message offering peace.
In your right: a pistol, cold and ready.

Your next checkpoint is a quiet park once known for prison walls, now for shadows that listen. Someone is waiting. Friend or enemy—you won't know until you're standing face to face. You take a breath, and step forward.

The clock is ticking. And Berlin is watching.
