The statues of Budapest have come to life, and only you can stop them. In this self-guided supernatural detective quest, you'll join King Franz Joseph, battle an enchanted giant frog, and hunt down the Wizard Builder of Budapest across 15 of the city's most iconic landmarks.
Using the free Questo app, each stop unlocks the next chapter of an immersive story woven through real Budapest history. Decode secret messages at the Hungarian Parliament (its dome height is no coincidence), find guerrilla mini-statues hidden along Liberty Square, and race to the Great Synagogue — the largest in Europe — before it's too late.
Solve cryptic puzzles at Parliament, St Stephen's Basilica, and the 1956 Revolution memorial while uncovering Hungary's most dramatic chapters: the Soviet occupation, the Sisi love story, and the birth of modern Zionism.
Perfect for curious travelers, history lovers, and anyone who wants to experience Budapest in a completely new way.
