You will first be introduced to the story about Johannes Gutenberg in Mainz: 1449 in Mainz: Johannes Gutenberg has a groundbreaking idea: He wants to build a printing press to print fonts. An absolute world first! Yet people do not recognize the benefits of this strange invention. As a result, he doesn't have the money for the components. In addition, not all components have been fully developed yet! He is threatening to fail disgracefully. As his assistants, will you be able to achieve the sensation of the millennium together with him?

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 Mainz's most beautiful sights and important points and learn more about Johannes Gutenberg in Mainz. 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 Mainz, near the ruins and memorial of St. Christoph.
