The threat of cannon fire: Outdoor Escape Game

The outdoor escape game in Schaffhausen using your smartphone:

Start the timer, work as a team to solve the puzzles at the various locations, and chat with the deranged criminal. An action-packed outing for team-building events, school groups, friends, couples and families with teenagers.

Did you know that there have been two real cannons at Munot Fortress, Schaffhausen’s landmark, since 1859? They’re a real tourist magnet, and soon the cannons are set to become an even bigger attraction, ha ha ha! Why? Well, I’ve secretly given the old cannons a masterful revamp: they now stand on a modern turntable and are ready to unleash a veritable barrage of cannon fire in all directions. I’ve also modernised the firing mechanism, which is now linked to a password-protected control programme on my PC. I’m giving you one chance to stop the firing: if you manage to crack the secret code for the control programme in time, you can abort the ignition that’s just been triggered. If not, in exactly 2 hours and 15 minutes you’ll see a barrage of cannon fire raining down on the town of Schaffhausen from the Munot, ha ha ha!

Find the secret code before the timer runs out and thus prevent the catastrophe. Do you think you’re up to it? Then round up a few capable teammates and set off on an exciting outdoor adventure. Solve the puzzles at the various locations and decipher the puzzle pieces you find within the allotted time to stop the deranged criminal from carrying out his plan! Along the way, explore the town of Schaffhausen and learn more about the medieval old town on the Upper Rhine and its impressive Munot fortress.

Note for group events: Several teams can start at the same time and compete against each other.
