The story is set in 1656 in Magdeburg: Otto von Guericke plans a major experiment with two metal hemispheres to prove the power of vacuum. As his assistants, you will help him prepare for the public presentation.
Work as a team (1-6 people) to solve the case. Larger groups should split up for a better gaming experience.
Follow our city map from station to station, solve puzzles about Magdeburg's sights and learn more about Otto von Guericke and his experiment. The focus is on the story and the puzzles.
