WRONG CLOTHES.
RIGHT CITY.

You're Lukas Löffler. Insurance clerk. Optimist. The worst-dressed man in a city that claims not to care.

Trade favors, read the room, and find your way from an East Berlin corner pub to the last door in town. Your money won't get you far. Neither will your suit.

  • Point & click
  • Puzzles & bad decisions
  • Dry Berlin humor

Your first night starts here

NOT ON THE LIST?
MAKE A FRIEND.

There's a party below the Rusty Tap. There's also a locked door, a broken sound system, and a room full of people who know something you don't.

Explore the street, bar, bathroom and basement. Talk your way forward. Put unlikely objects together. Try something foolish. You can always try again.

How do I play?

Pick an action: Look, Use, Talk or Zipper. Then select something in the scene. Select items in your inventory to use them or combine them. The journal keeps your clues, and hints are there when you need a nudge.

Do I need an account?

The first chapter is free with no account. Your progress saves in this browser, and you can export a backup. An account links a full-game purchase and lets you save your journey across devices. Open Account in the game for purchase availability.

Can I play with a keyboard or touch?

Yes. Use Tab and Enter on a keyboard. On touch screens, tap an object to select it, then confirm your action. The object list makes small targets easy to reach. Adjust music and effects separately, and reduce motion in Settings.

What should I expect?

An adventure for adults, with sexual innuendo, alcohol, coarse humor and comic misfortune. The story is fictional; the city's complicated past is part of its setting.
