The mission: Your story in Vienna

Vienna, 1900. The city hums with nervous energy, its cafés thick with cigarette smoke and radical ideas.

Sigmund Freud is mapping the hidden continent of the human mind, and the streets around you hold the echoes of his obsessions, his patients, and his rivals.

Follow the trail he left behind and see whether the city still dreams.

Every place tells stories. Some of those stories are very old, some of them are even forgotten and buried. Like a reanimator, I bring them back to life, that is my joyful struggle.
