Exciting puzzlehunt
at Brno Old Town Hall

About the Game

Crooked turrets, dishonest councillors, the Brno dragon… You know all that already? Perfect, because we won’t be telling those legends. Instead, let’s discover the Old Town Hall from less familiar angles – and finally to see the whole of Brno from a bird’s-eye view! We’ll guide you through the building’s hidden corners, giving you a truly unusual perspective. You’ll discover, for example, the oldest living quarters in the Town Hall complex and learn who once lived there. And you’ll count how many steps it takes to reach the panoramic view over the entire city of Brno.

How does the game work?

In our game, you will set out to explore various corners of Brno’s Old Town Hall and discover places where our present was shaped. In a team of 2–5 players, you will not only pass through different rooms in the Town Hall, but you will also climb its tower. At 7 checkpoints, you’ll learn a bit about what has taken place in this building over the centuries. You can look forward to puzzles, logic tasks, and collecting passwords.

Each time you enter the correct password into the online game system, you will learn the location of the next checkpoint. Therefore, you need at least one phone with an internet connection to play.
