Description
This is an escape game through the heart of Zurich. 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 Hardbrücke station and going towards Wipkingerpark. You'll not only pass by Zurich'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!

Amazing escape game
We had so much fun with Sato Code in Zurich! The game is designed to let you discover the city in a very engaging way. As in an escape room, there are different puzzles to solve, but you are in a real setting - this make the game very special.

Creative Urban adventure
We're really glad we found this game - we played it around the prime tower/Hardbrucke area. The game is well-designed and has a creative mix of digital and physical clues! I'll definitely play more from Sato code and I'll recommend it to friends!

It was really fun.
We were too late and it was really fun and the puzzles were so unknown to us and you had to think a little around the corners. We are eagerly waiting for another trail.

Something new
Cool new game which was a lot of fun. We were two groups and played each other. The puzzles weren't quite trivial but that's what made it exciting.

fun mixed-reality adventure through Zurich
We had a great time. We were a small group of 4. Not sure if it would work as well with bigger groups. Difficulty level was great. We would have finished it, if there wasn't a huge flea market where one of the stations was. :) It was great fun anyway!
