Do you want to do something together without filling the day with bookings and travel? Wadköping offers a different kind of date than a restaurant visit in the city center. The wooden houses, courtyards, and proximity to Stadsparken make it easy to slow down. Add a mystery, and you'll have a walk where you not only look at the surroundings but use them to advance the story.

Let Wadköping Be the Excursion Itself
It's easy to plan a date that becomes bigger than intended: first shopping, then an activity, then a long dinner. Here, choosing Wadköping as the main focus of the day is enough. Go there, step into the story, and leave the rest open.
If you are coming from the city center, the stretch along Svartån can be a peaceful start to your visit. The regular walk to the area is separate from the game route. Once you arrive, The Mystery in Wadköping begins with Hjalmar Bergman's silhouette at the western entrance.
A Case to Talk About Together
The booklet provides you with a map, story, and tasks. You read, examine the surroundings, and test your answers in the Archive on your phone when the instructions ask you to do so. It is a self-guided game, not a guided tour where a guide speaks and you just listen.
Try to approach it with curiosity rather than speed. The person who usually holds the map can hand it over, and the person who usually waits for a clue can suggest the next theory. In a date activity, it is an advantage if both people are involved.
Fika When It Suits You
The businesses in Wadköping have their own opening hours, even though the area itself is open. Therefore, check where you can fika on your visit day instead of assuming everything is open at the same time. Also take into account events that may affect how crowded it is.
If you want a simple break, you can plan for a hot drink and something small to eat. Choose a place where you can sit, and remember to protect the booklet from moisture. Fika is your own part of the excursion and is not included in the purchase of the mystery.
Make Room for a Slow Conclusion
After the game, you can stay in the area or continue to Stadsparken. You do not need to come up with another activity just to make the day feel well-planned. A walk where you talk about your different theories may be enough.
Pack the booklet, a charged phone, and preferably a pen. Choose daylight so you can read and look for details comfortably, and dress for being outdoors. If either of you needs an adapted route, you should ask us about the conditions before purchasing. Also read our visitor guide to Wadköping to distinguish between the area, the businesses, and the game itself.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Mystery in Wadköping the same story as the Örebro Mystery?
No. Wadköping and central Örebro have different mysteries, materials, and starting points. Choose the right product for the environment where you want to play.
Can we assume that Wadköping is always quiet and empty?
No. Events, markets, and other visitors can affect the environment. Check current visitor information and choose a time that suits what you are looking for.
How do we fit a fika break into the date?
Choose a separate break based on what is open and how you want to spend the day. Fika is not included in the booklet and does not need to be a requirement for the outing to take place.
Do we need a guide or game master during the date?
No. You play yourselves and follow the booklet and the Archive together. Neither of you needs to know the solution in advance to be able to participate in investigating the case.
What do we need to prepare before the date in Wadköping?
Order the physical booklet with a delivery margin and decide who will bring it. Bring a charged mobile phone with internet access and check the starting point in the current product information.
What should we do if someone needs special accessibility?
Contact Mysteriejakten before purchasing to assess the game route and read the current visitor information about Wadköping. Do not assume that the entire activity is suitable for everyone just because the area can be visited.
