Solve the riddle
The figure speaks in clues: "I was born in Uppsala in 1701…". Guess who it is. A wrong guess gives a new clue.

How it works
Three seals free each figure
Every adventure is a saga with two young heroes, a villain and real people from history or myth who are lost in the villain's fog.
Find their home
Tap the world map where the figure lived. The search circle shrinks with every try, so everyone gets there.
Win the duel
Pick a card from your team and answer a question. Courage beats Wisdom, Wisdom beats Heart, Heart beats Courage. Knowledge makes you stronger.
What kids learn
Real knowledge that sticks
History and myth
Confucius, Snorri, Selma Lagerlöf, Odin: real people and the stories people believed, told with care and respect.
Geography
Every figure lives somewhere. Kids find the place on a real map and learn where history happened.
Why, not just what
After a wrong answer the game explains why the right one is right, and missed questions come back another day.
Stories to talk about
Each figure has a two-part saga: someone uses the knowledge well, someone misuses it. With questions to talk about afterwards.

For parents and teachers
Safe, calm and made for learning
- No account, no email. Kids just start playing. Progress is saved in the browser and can be backed up to a file.
- No names shared. In the arena every player gets a made-up animal nickname.
- Facts first. New figures are researched from reliable sources, and stories may only use the figure's checked facts.
- Respectful. Myths and living faiths are told as beliefs and stories, never mocked.
- Short sessions. One seal takes a few minutes, so it fits a lesson, a bus ride or the time before dinner.
- Three languages. English, Swedish and Brazilian Portuguese, on phones, tablets and computers.
