The sun hits the Münster spire and the cobbled alleys of Freiburg hum with foot traffic as you tap “Start” on your phone. Suddenly the city becomes a crime scene: Bächle (the little water channels) whisper clues, market stalls hide riddles, and narrow lanes funnel you toward the next twist. The game places you at the center of a classic Holmes-style investigation — observing façades, decoding notes, and recording photographic evidence as you move through the old town.
