Starting his Russian tour, the famous stunt performer and illusionist Harry Houdini challenged police forces to keep him locked away in the city’s most guarded and secure prison, Peter and Paul's Fortress. Harry escaped elegantly and quickly. How about you? Try to do the same stunt as the illusionist, or the game won’t be a joke in an hour anymore, and you will remain locked up forever. To break free, you will have to learn about the mysteries of the disappearing trick and about the secrets of locks and handcuffs.
