About this experience
Imagine you're part of a top-secret special unit: the First Profilers. In the middle of Berlin, there is growing evidence of a highly intelligent criminal ring that has been operating in secret for years — precise, unscrupulous, almost invisible. The head behind it? Known by just one name: “The Shadow.” Not a face. No mistakes. Just traces — so subtle that only real profilers can recognize them.
Your mission begins at Potsdamer Platz — a place where history, present and movement meet. From here, follow a secret trail across the heart of the city. Step by step, you dive deeper into the case, pass by well-known sights, hidden details and places where Berlin shows its many faces. The final awaits you at the Brandenburg Gate — where it is decided whether your mission is successful.
The game consists of ten consecutive mission levels. Each level brings new insights, new twists, and brings you closer to the truth. But nothing is given to you: You can only unlock new story stages by solving puzzles in your real environment. Observe, combine, think together — Berlin itself becomes the playing field for your investigations.
In between, you can come across bonus challenges that can pop up at any time: photo missions, AI tasks, logic challenges, or short arcade elements. They provide variety, additional points and surprising moments in the middle of the city.
The gaming experience consists of three levels:
The main mission — a continuous crime story in 10 levels
The environment — location-based puzzles that unlock new levels
Bonus challenges — spontaneous additional tasks with extra points
Whether you take your time, take breaks and enjoy sights along the way — or focus and be tactical: You set the pace. The outdoor escape game can be played flexibly and is perfect for teams, groups of friends, couples or colleagues.
At the end, the decisive moment awaits:
the showdown.
The moment when it becomes apparent whether you have unmasked the shadow — or whether it has escaped from you again.
The question is not whether Berlin is ready for you.
The question is:
👉 Are you ready for Berlin?
