About this activity

Enjoy a unique experience in Augsburg right from your smartphone. Let yourself be swept away by the story of the Fugger merchant family, who lived in Augsburg.

We’ve lovingly researched this city scavenger hunt on-site, created it without AI, and it has a genuine connection to Augsburg. As you solve the puzzles of this exciting story, you’ll pass by Augsburg’s most beautiful sights. You’ll solve the puzzles right at the sights themselves.

Work as a team (1–6 people per group) to solve the case. Are there more than 6 of you (max. 50 people)? Then we recommend splitting into several small groups, as experience shows that otherwise not everyone is fully engaged in the game. You can also see which group is the fastest!

Solve the puzzles with the help of your city map as you follow the story from station to station.

Move at your own pace and take a break whenever you want.
