The mission: Your story in Potsdam

Potsdam is on the brink of scandal. Hours before a once-in-a-lifetime royal exhibition opens, the original Prussian crown vanishes without a trace. 

Curator Mara Steinberg makes one desperate call: to you. Follow a trail of lies through grand squares, hidden courtyards, historic gates and the shadows of Sanssouci Park. Unmask the deception, outsmart the thief, and recover the crown before Prussia’s most powerful symbol is lost forever.
