Twardowski and the Secrets of Kraków (or how not to get caught by the devil and still have fun)
Kraków is a city that looks peaceful… but only at first glance. Under the cobblestones, between old buildings, in the shadows of towers and in corners missing from every map, legends are still wandering around.
Alive.
Talkative.
Sometimes a bit mischievous.
And among them – the most chatty, the most charming, and definitely the most troublesome of the whole bunch:
Pan Twardowski – a man who could easily have his own streaming series.
A wizard, the king of Kraków gossip, a master of secret arts, and the one who did something nobody else would dare: he signed a pact with the devil… and then outsmarted him. Since that day, the fiend has been trying to catch him – not in a wild chase, but more like someone who has been saying for centuries:
Come here, come on… I’ll get you sooner or later.
He just wanders around Kraków, asks questions, peeks into alleys and pretends he’s “just passing by”.
And Twardowski?
He does what any sensible wizard would do in such a situation: he becomes a guide and hides among the tourists. Because if anyone knows this city like his own spellbook – it’s him!
The devil has picked up Twardowski’s trail and is getting closer to Kraków faster than the next tourist running to see the Wawel Dragon. And if he catches him – it’s the end of legends, the end of magic, the end of everything that makes Kraków… Kraków.
Save Kraków’s legends, solve the puzzles and help Twardowski disappear among the stories before the devil gets him!
Every point on the map is a new legend, a new puzzle, a new dose of magic and a new chance to stay one step ahead of the devil.
Twardowski has decided to do what he does best – hide among the legends and invite you on a journey full of stories, riddles and discoveries that will show you Kraków’s second, magical face.
