CipherWalk

Outdoor escape games in Zürich

Every CipherWalk quest is an escape room played outdoors, on real streets. You bring a team of 2 to 4, follow a story from stop to stop, and solve a puzzle at each one. The clues are split across your phones, so no single player can finish it alone.

Each quest card below shows how far you walk. Duration is shown when we have an estimate for that trail. You play in the CipherWalk app on iPhone or Android, and one person's purchase unlocks the quest for the whole team.

There is nothing to reserve and no time slot to pick, so any of these can be played today — here is how soon you could actually be starting.
