The city is hiding ancient secrets

Kraków is a city that seems peaceful… but only at first glance. Beneath the cobblestones, between the townhouses, in the shadows of towers and in corners you won’t find on any map, legends are still very much alive.

Alive. Talkative.
And sometimes a little spiteful.

The hero of your mission

Pan Twardowski

The chattiest, most charming, and most troublesome character in the whole gang of Kraków legends. A man who could easily have his own streaming series. A sorcerer, the king of Kraków gossip, a master of the secret arts, and the man who did what no one else would dare to do: he signed a pact with the Devil… and outsmarted him.

Hear what your mission sounds like

Ever since then, the Devil has been trying to get his hands on him. Not in some wild, frantic chase, but more like someone who’s been saying for centuries: “Come here, come on… I’ll catch you eventually.” He simply wanders around Kraków, asks questions, peeks into alleyways, and pretends he was “just passing by.”

And Twardowski? Twardowski does what any sensible sorcerer would do in this situation: he becomes a tour guide and hides among the tourists. Because if anyone knows this city like the back of his spellbook, it’s him!

Your mission

Save Kraków’s legends, solve the puzzles, and help Twardowski disappear into the stories before the Devil catches him!

The Devil has picked up Twardowski’s trail and is closing in on Kraków faster than another tourist heading for the Wawel Dragon. And if he catches him, that’s it: no more legends, no more magic, no more of everything that makes Kraków… Kraków.

Every point on the map brings a new legend, a new puzzle, another dose of magic, and another chance to stay one step ahead of the Devil.

What awaits you?

You’ll discover Kraków legends told as if you were hearing them around a campfire, narrated by the greatest storyteller in the world.

You’ll solve clever, light-hearted puzzles that unlock the next chapters of the story.

You’ll experience the atmosphere of Kraków, a city far more magical than anyone would officially admit.

You’ll discover places thousands of people walk past every day, yet few know their true stories.

You’ll meet the spirits of old tales. Sometimes they’ll help, sometimes they’ll scare you, and sometimes they’ll simply have opinions of their own.

And along the way, you’ll help Twardowski stay out of the Devil’s clutches as he prowls somewhere nearby, sniffing around, asking questions, searching.

What’s at stake

FAQ

Before you hit the route

Each mission has its own starting point, which you’ll see before beginning your adventure. Kraków Legends follows the Royal Route: from the Grunwald Monument, through the Main Market Square, all the way to Wawel Castle.

Quite the opposite. You don’t need any knowledge of the city to have a great time. The app guides you along the route, while the narrator explains everything along the way.

Most missions take around 2 hours. But there’s no pressure. It’s not a race against the clock. You can pause the game for coffee, lunch, or a break and come back to it later.

You’ll need an internet connection to start the game and download the content. Once the mission is running, you only need GPS and can turn your internet connection off.

If your four-legged companion enjoys walks around the city, they’ll probably make a great mission partner! Just keep in mind that individual partner venues along the route may have their own rules regarding pets.
