The mission: Your story in Munich
I don't have much time, so listen carefully. Munich is in danger! The whole world is, to be precise! I have uploaded an application to your phone. Find a safe location, away from prying eyes, and launch it. It's directly connected to our main server and is operated by an artificial intelligence called Ynfo.
Listen carefully to what it tells you, OK? Oh, and one last thing: don't trust the falcons!
