The Clockmaker's Curse: A Prague Old Town Legends Hunt
The experience
About this quest
The skeleton on Prague's famous clock has stopped, and you are the clock keeper's apprentice. Walk from the Powder Tower across Old Town Square, through the Jewish Quarter and onto Charles Bridge, solving a puzzle at 10 landmarks. Some answers hide in the story, others on the statues and walls in front of you. Meet the Golem, the astronomer with the metal nose and the saint with five stars. A self-guided game where legend and real history are always told apart.
