A dark, gamified twist on the Hans Christian Andersen legacy that swaps traditional sightseeing for a puzzle-filled mystery through Copenhagen's hidden corners.

This self-guided exploration game takes a darker, more mysterious approach to the life of Hans Christian Andersen. Instead of a standard biographical walk, you are tasked with finding fragments of a “lost” and terrifying unpublished tale. The narrative-driven experience blends historical facts with a fictional quest involving a troll that threatens to erase the city’s memories.

The route covers approximately 3.5 kilometers and takes you through both well-known landmarks and hidden corners of Copenhagen. Key stops include the Royal Library Garden, Rådhuspladsen, Tivoli Gardens, and the Round Tower. The puzzles are location-based, requiring you to observe your surroundings to unlock the next part of the story.

While the theme is whimsical, the “haunted” framing and the focus on hidden streets provide a unique perspective on the city. It is best suited for those who enjoy gamified storytelling and are looking for an alternative to traditional sightseeing tours.
