You are Christopher Columbus, destined for discovery—but the sea has other plans.
After a sudden shipwreck, you and your friend Arthur find yourselves stranded in an unfamiliar place. Lost without a map, compass, or crew, you awaken on the banks of what seems like a strange new world… but it’s actually Hamburg, transformed into a land of mystery and adventure.
To rejoin your ship before it sails, you must explore the city like a true adventurer. Solve real-world puzzles, follow hidden clues, and navigate through historic streets and surprising corners. Along the way, you'll uncover pieces of the past while creating memories in the present. This walking quest is perfect for friends or families seeking fun, challenge, and connection. Will you find your way back—or become part of Hamburg’s legend?
The mission: Your story in Hamburg
Lost from the rest of the crew, alone on this land, without map or compass, surrounded by unknown people, not understanding the language they speak, you must find your way back to their ship before it leaves the port. Good luck!
