On an early morning in Gamla Stan, cobbles still hold the night's damp and a salt-tinged breeze off the harbor nudges you toward the first clue. You tap open the game on your phone at Tungviktare Gåstorget, and the city becomes a logic puzzle: bronze statues, rune-marked stones and narrow alleys take on voice and motive as riddles point the way.
