How does the game work?

You download the game to your smartphone and follow GPS-guided locations across Stockholm South. At each stop, you solve puzzles, answer riddles, or complete photo challenges related to local history and landmarks. The narrative progresses as you solve clues, guiding you toward discovering the missing sisters' whereabouts.

Do I need a physical guide or tour leader?

No. This is a fully self-guided experience. You control the pace and route using your smartphone; there's no scheduled meeting point or guide accompanying you.

Can I play with a large group?

Yes, but optimally in groups of 1–4 people per ticket. If your group is larger, purchase additional tickets so everyone can participate without overcrowding the puzzle-solving experience.

How long does the game take?

The game is designed for approximately 2 hours, though you control the pace. You can pause and resume at any point during your chosen day.

What if I get stuck on a puzzle?

The game includes hint systems to help you progress. Specific support features are built into the app if you need guidance, though exact support options depend on the platform's functionality.

Bring a fully charged smartphone with GPS and internet connectivity, a portable power bank (recommended for extended play), comfortable walking shoes, and weather-appropriate clothing. A camera or good smartphone camera helps with photo challenges.
