Self-Guided Secrets of Zürich Exploration Game
Description
Zürich’s streets seem calm, but just beneath the stone, something stirs. Huldrych Zwingli, priest, reformer, and voice of a city once ablaze with change, has returned. His Disputation Scroll, the document that dared to shake centuries of silence, is missing. And with it, the city’s boldness has faded.
Now he calls on you to uncover the truth, not in grand cathedrals, but in quiet corners and whispered echoes. From tunnels to towers, every step brings you closer to the scroll and to a city that once spoke with fire. Help Zwingli restore his voice and let Zürich remember how to speak for itself.
You came to explore. You stayed to save the story.
