Description
This is an escape game through the heart of Como. A dozen clues placed in the streets and shops of the old town, that only the smartest will find. Hunt for clues, crack codes and solve puzzles - just like in a great escape room. You’ll find hidden symbols in a record store or a cryptic message in a pizzeria. Every object is a piece of a bigger puzzle. The challenges become increasingly more difficult. This is no game for kids: we recommend active participation from age 16. You’ll need to unleash all your brainpower to unravel the mystery. Only together with your team of brainiacs, you’ll master this game. The game unfolds in the city centre, starting at Piazza Cavour and going towards Porta Torre. You'll not only pass by Como's iconic landmarks but also uncover some hidden gems that only few visitors come across. Don't settle for a usual tourist outing – try this escape game!

Short and crisp
Short, exciting, great that you have to work in a team. Everyone liked it - even in rainy weather well suited.

A fun ride in the city
An original and fun way to take a walk in the city that brings together teenage children and boomer parents.

Passionate
"The Origin" is definitely an intriguing and fun experience to try when you are visiting Como. It combines the suspense of an escape game with the pleasure of visiting well-known and lesser-known places in the city. Nothing extraordinary but puzzles to solve of increasing difficulty exalt the moment you manage to conclude the game. To do! Definitely, if I am in other cities where Sato Code games are organized, I will participate.

A very good city escape game
We played Sato code in both como and Milano. In both cities we found the puzzles very well done. Not too hard, not too easy. A very varied challenge. Especially in Como, it was associated with a very nice city tour to the most important places. Sato code is therefore definitely a good idea if you want to get a first overview of your destination and experience an exciting story with puzzles. In case of problems, the kastel-service also responds by e-mail relatively quickly.

A nice alternative activity
The kids, all 11/12 years old, had a lot of fun. A truly beautiful experience through the streets of Como. To try!

Just book it. We had a great time playing this 😍
Honestly, this was so fun. Me and partner booked it last minute as a cheap but fun activity to do in Como, and it didn't disappoint. It's a fun way to view the town and is actually really challenging. Did it take us 30 mins to complete 1 clue? Yes, it did, but we decided to keep going and not use the tip or skip to the next one. It's funny because you come across other people playing it, and you end up grouping up or laughing as they go in the wrong direction 🙊 You can be competitive and try to get the fastest time, but we stopped for a drink during as we wanted the other team to pass us as it spoils you working out the clue yourself if other people are at that point. However, you don't know if they have it right anyway, but you get my point. Have already recommended to some tourists we met by the lake and I will definitely do it again in another city 😀
