Geneva, Switzerland. A city of calm… until now. Whispers of strange attacks, wild behavior, and shadowy cover-ups have begun to surface. A dangerous virus has escaped—a virus that turns people into zombies. Official reports call it an "incident." But you know better.
As a skilled epidemiologist, you've been summoned by your mentor, Dr. Phillips. Your mission: trace the source, solve the puzzles he’s left behind, and stop the outbreak before the city falls. The infected are getting closer—and they’re not slow.
This quest is a thrilling real-world adventure through Geneva’s streets. Solve clues, stay ahead of the virus, and share the adrenaline with friends or family. You’re not just walking—you’re racing to save the world. Will you survive the chase?

You are an epidemiologist and your mentor Dr. Phillips needs your help. He asks you to meet him in Geneva. You have to find the source of the virus and destroy it, before it’s too late.
The zombies are coming and you have to start running.

Frequently asked questions
What’s the mission?
You’re an epidemiologist summoned by Dr. Phillips because a virus has escaped in Geneva—and it's turning people into zombies. You follow his puzzles, track the outbreak, and try to stop the infection before things go off the rails.
Who’s this made for?
People who love thrills—friends who want to race the clock, couples who like danger + scenery, and families with older kids who can handle suspense and detective work.
Can we play this as a date night?
Yes! Doing this at dusk adds tension: long shadows, fewer people, lights turning on. Solving scary/awesome puzzles together is great for bonding.
How about with family or kids?
Older kids and teens who love zombie or thriller stories will probably be all in. Maybe not the best for very young kids late in the day, but safer (and more fun) during daylight.
Is this scary? Will there be zombies jumping out?
It’s spooky and dramatic, not horror-movie level. The idea is suspense, story, adrenaline—not full scare with jump outs. More like the thrill of chase than a scarefest.
Will locals enjoy this too, or is it just for tourists?
Definitely locals can dig this. Even people familiar with Geneva discover stories they didn’t know—Frankenstein references, hidden arsenals, quirky bits in architecture. It shows Geneva in a new way.
