What To Expect

The exploration game is available in English, German and Romanian.

You will pass through a gorgeous passage which hosts exotic shops and a luxury hotel. A hundred years ago, the entire place was used as a 'shopping mall for the aristocrats'.

Each clue will lead you from one place to another, giving you exact directions so you won't need a map, a GPS or a guide. When you solve the clues and guess the answer, the secret story of that place is unlocked. Start and stop whenever you want.

The tour will take you from 1.5 to complete, but there’s no time limit so you can finish it at your own pace. After you buy the quest, an access code will be delivered to you by mail. Go to the starting point and be ready to begin the adventure...Ready?
