About the adventure

Can you crack the code before Skygge-Søren? Go on a detective adventure in Hirtshals! 🕵️‍♀️ A race against time has just hit Hirtshals, and your sharp brains are needed! ⏱️ Local historian Klara has made a sensational discovery in the town's dusty archives: Lighthouse Keeper Knudsen's forgotten logbook from 1928. The book is filled with cryptic number sequences, secret light signals and maritime puzzles that together form a route through the town. It is said that the route leads directly to a secret, locked drawer in the iconic Hirtshals Lighthouse! But you are not alone... The greedy and sneaky treasure hunter, Skygge-Søren, has picked up the rumor! He lurks in the shadows down by the harbor with his large binoculars, ready to steal the clue right from your nose. Can you decode the logbook's secrets and reach the mystery of the lighthouse before he does? The first post is right across from SuperBrugsen in HIrtshals.
