The mission: uncover Einstein's last secret

Albert Einstein studied, lived and researched in Zurich – and left behind a secret that no one has uncovered to this day. You receive his suitcase: it holds old documents, clues and notes that lead you to the places you are looking for in the city. Use the iPad to check your hunches on site – because the time-travel compass only calibrates at the right spot and unlocks the next stage.

The Last Secret is very different from our other outdoor escape games: instead of following a set route, you have to work out the locations yourselves. Picture, sound and text puzzles call for clever thinking, teamwork and good knowledge of Zurich. The game is challenging but doable – and in the end, only one team can open the secret treasure chest and solve the mystery of Albert Einstein.

Who is The Last Secret for? Adults aged 16 and over: Zurich locals, expats and anyone who wants to rediscover their city – and small corporate teams looking for a real challenge. The game is less suitable for tourists who don’t know the city; for them, we recommend Operation Mindfall or Blackout.
