What to expect
Mission: Save the Earth
An asteroid sent to Earth by the angry god Perun is about to fall on Petrin Hill and destroy Prague. Young astronomer Irenka and St. Lawrence himself are responsible for saving the Earth, and they need your help. Solve all the riddles and rebuses, decipher the ancient manuscript containing the secret of salvation.

The 'Time Hole' fountain, waterfalls, and ponds create a fairy-tale romantic atmosphere here all year round!
