How long do I have to use it?

It opens the moment the payment clears. 180 days from purchase, with no subscription behind it and nothing to cancel, so a trip that slips by a month is not a trip you pay for twice.

What if a riddle beats us?

Take a hint. They are there from the first riddle and they cost points rather than progress — the score comes out lower and the walk carries on. No puzzle can end the hunt for you.

Can we do it as a group?

Yes, and it reads better aloud than alone. Access is held by the browser that paid for it, so buy once and pass the phone round rather than buying one each.

What you get

A walking game across Rudolf II's Prague — the emperor who filled his court with alchemists, stargazers and charlatans. Seven riddles lead you from the Old Town's coronation gate, over Charles Bridge and into the Lesser Town, ending on the cobbled climb toward the castle: a little over three kilometres. Solve each one, prove you're there, move on. Hints are available whenever you're stuck — they just cost you points.

7 riddles, checked by the server as you solve them
A hint whenever you are stuck. It costs a few points.

Where does it go?

That is the game. A hunt tells you nothing but the first riddle; the place it points at is what you work out, and printing the list here would be printing the answers. What we will say is the shape of it: 7 riddles, 3.2 km, about 2 h, and every stop is somewhere you can reach and see without paying an admission.
