The story: 1828 in Bremen: You are a councilor and bailiff and are called to a strange case. The ailing Rademacher Johann Christoph Rumpff has filed a complaint. He found eye-catching white grains in his ham, which his housekeeper dismissed as mere fat. However, since Rumpff has been suffering from discomfort for days, he suspects bad things: Something has made him ill. Can you solve this mysterious case?

Work as a team (1-6 people per group) to solve the case. Are you more than 6 people? Then we recommend that you divide yourself into several small groups, otherwise experience has shown that not all are well integrated into the game. You can also test which group is the fastest.

Puzzle your way through the story from station to station using our city map. Solve the puzzles at Bremen's most beautiful sights and learn more about the case of the poisoner Gesche Gottfried. It is part of the game to guess the individual stations. At the stations, clues must be sought to solve the puzzles. The focus is on the story and the puzzles.

Move at your own pace and take a break whenever you want. The city rally ends in the old town of Bremen near the St. Peter's Cathedral in Bremen.
