About this experience

In our unique human-created & presented Deep Strike (Szczecin) city game, you will become a team of secret agents aiming to sneak in and save the city from a powerful and mysterious organization called Scorpio Industries.

On your mission you will walk around the Old Town, visiting different points on a map and tackling various fun spy tasks. As with all of our other games in cities around Poland, Deep Strike has been intentionally designed to engage you with the amazing city (and people!) around you in a natural way without screentime or tech-reliance.
