Who Am I? San Sebastian Identity Puzzle Adventure
Follow the story of a toy maker through the heart of San Sebastian, solving clues at iconic landmarks and hidden corners alike.
This San Sebastian outdoor puzzle adventure blends city exploration, narrative storytelling, and escape-room challenges into a single self-guided experience across the Basque city center. Players follow a compelling story about a toy maker searching for their true identity, with the plot revealing itself step by step as each challenge is solved. Guided entirely through your smartphone, the route leads through landmark plazas, riverside bridges, and historic buildings at whatever pace suits you.
