Discover Visby with an exciting walking tour game
Sigge the cat is worried. He was about to show you a really nice lookout point when something unexpected happened and he lost sight of his master. Usually there is no cause for alarm when that happens, but this time is different. The Danish king Valdemar Atterdag and his soldiers are marching towards Visby. They have already conquered the southern parts of Sweden, and Gotland is next.
Join Sigge to look for his master outside the safety of the city walls. Will you manage to stay clear of the heat of the battle and find him before it is too late?
The Battle of Visby from a cat’s point of view
You meet Sigge close to Skansport, where you climb the city wall to be able to see the signal fires glow through the fog. Sigge takes you to the locations inside, and outside, the city walls where the events of the battle took place. In each location you will be able to take part of the story in different ways. Look for secret passageways through the city wall, and protect Sigge from enemy fire.
As you walk between locations, your four-legged friend tells you everything he knows about Valdemar Atterdag and the legends that sprung from the Danish king’s invasion.
