Fog over a spruce forest in the Jizera Mountains at dawn

There are more stories outside than can fit in a room.

Outdoor escape games that turn a trip into an adventure. Your phone guides you through the story, but you have to find the answers outside. Choose your location and go.

Where we play

Choose a location

Each location has its own games, its own pace and its own landscape. In the mountains you play with a map and fog, in Prague with facades and courtyards.

The main difference

Your phone guides you.
But you play outside.

The game uses your phone only as a storyteller. The real clues are all around you: on buildings, on trails, in the landscape, on maps, or in places you'd otherwise walk right past.

  • Clues live in the terrain

    A date carved into a beam, a mark on a rock, the shape of a wall. Your phone won't hand you the answer.

  • You walk, not scroll

    There's always a stretch of trail between tasks. The screen looks into your pocket, not into your eyes.

  • Works without signal

    Content downloads in advance. Out in the Jizeras, you can't count on a network.

Four steps

How it works

  1. 01

    Pick a story

    Each game takes you to a different piece of landscape and has its own tone. You'll get your ticket via a link by email.

  2. 02

    Arrive at the start

    You know the starting point in advance, coordinates and how to get there. The game unlocks only once you're there.

  3. 03

    Your phone guides you

    You get the story, tasks, a map, and new clues. You set the pace, a snack break won't hurt anyone.

  4. 04

    The rest is up to you

    Observe your surroundings, think it through, and make it to the end. The landscape doesn't hide the answers, it just doesn't say them out loud.

Who it's for

Families

Kids from age eight can handle the peat bog game, and it's nothing like a nature trail.

Two teams against each other, no awkward icebreakers. We can handle 40 people too.

Schools

The region's history and nature in a way the class still remembers come June.

Reviews

How it went

After twenty minutes we'd completely forgotten we'd originally just gone for a hike.
Tereza a group from Liberec Shadows of Jizera
Places we'd walked past for years suddenly meant something completely different.
Martin weekend away with his girlfriend The Mountains' Curse
The best part was realizing the other team was just a few hundred meters away from us.
Ondra company team-building, 10 people Smugglers
The kids ran around for three hours straight without a single complaint. That's never happened to us before.

Frequently asked

Before you ask

All questions
Do I need to install anything?
No. The game runs in your phone's browser. After purchase you get a link, open it at the start, and play. Nothing to download from the App Store or Google Play.
Do we need mobile signal?
Yes, at the start, to load the game. After that the app keeps the content offline and only needs signal occasionally. We've accounted for weak-signal stretches in every game.
How many people can play?
Two is enough. Most games work best with three to six people, and one phone per team is plenty. Smugglers and Štvanice Island are played in two teams, so from four to twelve players.
What if it starts raining?
You keep playing, outdoors doesn't work any other way. Tickets never expire, so if the weather is truly against you, reschedule for another day at no charge.
Is the game suitable for kids?
Secret of the Peat Bog is built for families and works for kids from age eight. Shadows of Jizera, In Žižka's Footsteps and Štvanice Island suit ages twelve and up. Operation North, The Mountains' Curse, The Clockmaker's Will and Smugglers are more demanding, we recommend age fourteen and up.
Can we bring a dog?
Yes, on most routes. In Secret of the Peat Bog a leash is required, as the route runs through a protected area. For Smugglers we don't recommend it, it's fast-paced and covers a larger territory.
