The Story

The Magic of Basel

Haven't you always wanted to wield a magic wand, slay dragons and change everything with a single spell?

With Aurora's Magic Cube, this dream comes true in the heart of Basel. Together with your friends you encounter spirits, trolls and dragons, and only hand in hand will you reach your goal.

Let yourselves be enchanted by magical creatures, a talking cube and an evil witch who can only be defeated by non-magical people. At last you can be what you always dreamed of: wizard, witch, hero.

But first you must prove yourselves worthy. Get to know the magic cube, which leads you to secret places that ordinary mortals would not even dare to dream of, and get ready for the fight of your life.

Good to Know

Everything You Need to Know

How it works

We'll meet you at the starting point in Basel, where we'll briefly explain what it's all about and answer any open questions. Here you'll also receive a tablet and your first clue.

Your compass: The tablet helps you navigate through the city and tells you whether a code you've entered is correct.

The bag of items: At your first destination you'll find further objects that you'll use to solve the following puzzles.

Teamwork counts: Everyone brings different skills, which is exactly what you need to crack all the puzzles together.

How long does it take
The tour takes about 2 hours.
Who can play
The tour is designed for adults, recommended minimum age 16. For younger adventurers, there is an easier Kids Mode from about 10 years.
What about bad weather
We also play in light to moderate rain, heat or cold. So bring appropriate clothing; if needed, we'll provide you with an umbrella. In case of heavy rainfall, we offer a free rebooking to another date.
Can we take breaks or go to the toilet
The time per tour is set so that you can take a few minutes for short breathers. So you have the chance to quickly grab something to drink or an ice cream on the go. The maximum playing time is 2 hours, so longer breaks or interruptions are not possible. Otherwise you would run into the groups behind you, and we wouldn't be able to ensure a smooth organisational flow.
How difficult are the puzzles
The difficulty of our puzzles is perceived very differently from person to person. People with a lot of escape game experience approach the challenge quite differently than those trying it for the first time.

For younger adventurers, we've specifically developed a Kids Mode. For especially fast groups, we also have the option of unlocking bonus puzzles during the game. So with our puzzles, we always adapt to your pace.
Can we play with a wheelchair or stroller
The tour leads through areas with cobblestones; stairs are not part of the route. In principle, we can also offer the tour with a stroller or wheelchair, though it may be that you'll need a small detour to reach your destination.
Is the tour suitable for deaf people
Since sound is an important part of the puzzles, this tour is unfortunately not suitable for deaf people. If you're interested, we're happy to advise you on our other tours.
Can we play with more than 8 people
Up to 8 people is recommended, as the puzzles are designed for one group. For larger groups of up to 24 people, Duel Mode is available from 8 people: you compete against each other in several teams and solve the puzzles in a direct contest.
We're more people than booked, is that okay?
No problem, please bear in mind the recommended maximum group size.
Can we bring our dog?
Dogs are very welcome. However, we'd appreciate it if the puzzle items come back to us as drool-free as possible at the end.
What to expect

You don't always have to know everything in detail, a little surprise is a nice thing too!

But if you've already painstakingly read through all the questions and answers and are still unsure, here are a few more details (minor spoiler alert ☝️):

We'll meet you at the starting point, where we'll briefly explain what it's about and answer any questions that come up. Here you'll also be handed a tablet, your backpack with the utensils, and the fantastic magic cube.

The tablet is your compass and decoder. It helps you navigate through the city and tells you whether a code you've entered is correct.

But that's not all: various elements around you will also help you find the solution to the puzzle. Most important, however, will be teamwork. Puzzle together, exchange ideas and complement each other! Every person brings different skills, and that's exactly what you'll need in the end to crack all the puzzles.

After the last puzzle, you can pat each other on the back, because the roughly 3-kilometre-long scavenger hunt will have been tricky, and you'll have mastered it together. You can then crown the adventure with a selfie, have the photo sent to you by email afterwards, and view an evaluation.

Mission accomplished, items handed back, and the Game Master looks quite relieved that you made it. Who would have thought that team brain-jogging could be so much fun and end so head-spinning? Take a short rest while you still have all your brain cells together, because the next adventure at AdventureRooms Basel is already waiting!
