Start at the castle in the old town. Open the link from your confirmation email with your phone or tablet, log in, and start playing.

The story: 1648 in Osnabrück: Many envoys from all over the world came to the city to finally put an end to the Thirty Years' War and many other conflicts! They want to make peace. But before the first negotiations can begin, it must first be clarified which prince may speak with which nobleman and which envoy, because there are various estates coming together. It is up to you to bring order to chaos and to plan peace negotiations in the best possible way. This also includes the Peace Riders, who bring the dispatches back and forth between the ambassadors in Osnabrück and those in Münster.

Work as a team (1-6 people per group) to solve the case. Are you more than 6 people? Then we recommend dividing 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 through the story from station to station with the help of our city map. Solve the puzzles at Osnabrück's most beautiful sights and learn more about the peace of 30 years of peace. It is part of the game to guess the individual stations. At the stations, you are looking for clues to solve the puzzles. The focus of this game is on the story and puzzles.

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