With multiple kids, each station offers an easy AND a harder puzzle. Younger kids get the simpler one, older kids tackle the tougher one. No one's bored, no one's overwhelmed. All on one device that gets passed around. Completely free, no extra fee.
1 Kid
Solo — one puzzle per station, easy or hard.
2 Kids
One solves the easy, one the hard puzzle.
3+ Kids
Group, family or school class — everyone solves puzzles together.
Tip before you start
Bring a tablet or iPad — that way the whole family can see the puzzles at once, and the images look great big.
Foxtrail, UrbanMission and detective-trails only offer one puzzle per station — with us, every kid solves the right one.
How you solve puzzles
At each station, three card types await you — for knowledge, action and puzzles!
Info Card
Luca and Mia tell you exciting stories and facts about the place. Did you know there's a motorway running under the Überlandpark?
Action Card
Observe, count, search, slide! This one's on you. How many benches are there? Find the bee hotel!
Puzzle Card
Solve the puzzle and collect a letter! At the end, they form a secret solution word that resolves the story.
