You will first be introduced to the story about Johann Sebastian Bach: 1736 in Leipzig: The cantor and music director in Leipzig, Johann Sebastian Bach, has a big problem. Although he composes a new piece almost weekly, conducts performances and plays concerts, his work is still not appreciated by the Leipzig authorities. He conducts music in the city's four main churches and music lessons at St. Thomas School, but those responsible do not want to provide him with sufficient funds. Payment also leaves much to be desired. There is a lack of corners and ends. Will you be able to help him break out of his dilemma?

Work in 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 of them 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 Leipzig's most beautiful sights and important points and learn more about Johanns Sebastian Bach in Leipzig. It is part of the game to guess the individual stations of the city rally. As a result, they are not listed here. At the stations, clues must be sought to solve the puzzles. This game focuses on the story and puzzles, not on details of the historical history of the sights and the city.

Move at your own pace and take a break whenever you want. The duration is approximately 2 to 3 hours. The end is in the old town of Leipzig near St. Thomas Church.
