Prater context
Imperial hunting land turned public amusement district
The Prater opened to the public in 1766 after centuries of imperial use. Its Wurstelprater amusement area developed through popular entertainment, and the Giant Ferris Wheel opened in 1897, later becoming a Vienna landmark. This quest follows that real leisure history through an original game story rather than presenting today’s attractions as unchanged imperial survivals. Playable languages: English.

Beat the best: Top Vienna explorers
Born, raised & live in Vienna After finishing school, I worked at Vienna Airport, with airlines and for more then 12 years at the renowned Viennese auction house Dorotheum. So tourism, art and culture have been my daily occupation for more than 30 years. After two years of training, I successfully passed the official exam to become an Austria Guide in spring 2019. And since then I have taken great pleasure in guiding my guests through Vienna.
