This is a self-guided exploration game crafted by a passionate local storyteller and played through the cobbled lanes of Dusseldorf. You will explore 12 different locations while following the story of a historian tracking lost legends searching for a vanished ghost tied to the old town. At each location, you'll solve a real-world puzzle by searching for clues on monuments, graffiti, and facades.
