Self-Guided The Leipzig Syndicate City Escape Game

Your team gathers on the Markt in Leipzig, where the first task arrives, and the trail leads off between the old trading houses from there. It runs past the Museum der bildenden Künste, over to the Nikolaikirche and out to the open space of Augustusplatz. This is an outdoor escape game, so everything happens at street level. The centre of Leipzig sits inside a ring, and almost every stop is a few minutes from the last, which makes it workable for families with younger children as well as for groups of colleagues. Two to five players share one phone as a single team, and each person is handed a character with a specific role in the operation. Teams of more than five split up and buy another ticket. There is no guide walking ahead of you and no departure time to keep. How to playFour steps before Leipzig starts giving up its clues.

Your team decodes messages, tackles riddles and completes photo tasks, and because the characters know different things the group has to compare notes constantly. With more than one team playing, the afternoon becomes a contest and the finishing scores settle it, which suits a work outing. Stopping for coffee and picking things up an hour later changes nothing. Leipzig is the board the whole game is played on.
