What To Expect
Turn your visit of the Marais into a real-life adventure! During this playful and cultural investigation, you’ll start near Saint-Paul Church with a game booklet full of riddles, stories, and local anecdotes. Your mission: follow the trail of a mysterious character while discovering the most beautiful corners of the Marais. The route takes you through iconic landmarks such as Place des Vosges, Hôtel de Sully, and Rue des Francs-Bourgeois, as well as hidden gems only Parisians know. At each stop, you’ll have to observe the buildings, find details, or solve a clue. The puzzles are varied and accessible for everyone — a fun way to learn while exploring. You play entirely on your own: no guide, no app, just your curiosity and your logic! You can pause whenever you like, but the game automatically ends after 3 hours. At the end, open the final treasure chest and discover the outcome of your investigation.

5.00Great communication before the activity. The activity was very nice, we were able to discover this neighborhood in another way with an observer eye. The person who accompanied us was great, as soon as we needed she was available, we had a very good welcome and she is a very involved person. I recommend 100%.

5.00We had an absolutely amazing time on this investigation in the Marais! I came with a group of friends, and we all loved solving the puzzles—some were quick and easy, while others made us think a little harder, which kept things exciting the whole way through. The balance was perfect, and everyone in our group got to contribute in different ways. Beyond the fun of the game itself, we learned so much about the history and hidden gems of the neighborhood. The Marais is already a beautiful area to explore, but this experience made it even more special.
