Hi! Here we start. We are in the centre of the modern city. It was born as a consequence of the accelerated development of the 19th century. In the second half of the century, the city walls were demolished, and in their place, a road was built encircling the old city called the Ringstrasse - Ring Avenue. The open space in front of us was intended for grand-state buildings. One of them is the palace which we can see on the right behind the entrance gate. Another palace was supposed to be built on the left side, but the First World War disrupted the plans, and the Austro-Hungarian monarchy ceased to exist. The square between the palaces, originally planned as a conference and parade square, became the speech square. Today it is called Heroes' Square. Let's go inside, but first, confirm that you have read and understood the game's rules.
This trip will lead you through the streets of old Vienna in such a way that characters and urban legends will introduce you to the city through questions and answers. A correct answer will lead to the next point on the route and sometimes to several points at once. Even if a question is not asked at a particular station, do not skip it to save time. Stations without questions provide essential information for giving a correct answer at the next station. Also, carefully read explanations for correct answers. They also bring helpful information. Remember, you are not competing against another team but against time. There is no need to run or ignore the city surrounding you because only correct answers will advance you, and incorrect ones will stop you. In the end, only the game time and the number of correct answers from each player or group of players count, regardless of when they started the game or when they finished it relative to another player or group. Just pressing the start game button will start the timer. Do not launch the game before reaching the starting point, or carefully read and study the game's rules. Finally, and most importantly - enjoy the city and the atmosphere. Good Luck!
