Oslo: Vigeland Park Game Tour with Clues & Flexible Start

Summary

Solve playful challenges in oslo’s sculpture park with your phone

You’ll wander through Oslo’s Vigeland Park solving playful clues with your phone, discovering hidden statues and local stories along the way. Pause for snacks or photos whenever you want — it’s totally self-paced. Expect a few laughs, some head-scratching riddles, and moments where Oslo feels unexpectedly personal.

What’s the experience like?

The first thing that happened was a local woman stopped to ask if we were “playing the alien game.” She grinned when I nodded, then pointed toward the big Gustav Vigeland statue and said something in Norwegian I didn’t catch (I just smiled back — universal language, right?). The park was already humming with kids on scooters and old men feeding pigeons. We opened the app, and suddenly our phones were giving us clues about The Children’s Circle. I’d walked past those statues before but never really looked at their faces — some of them are weirdly serious for kids. My friend tried to pronounce one of the names out loud; a couple nearby laughed. It felt like everyone was in on it.

The game kept sending us to places I’d never noticed, like The Lone Girl statue tucked behind a hedge. There was this moment where the sun came out just as we solved a clue near Sinnataggen (the angry little boy), and you could hear someone playing guitar off in the distance. Not sure if it was part of the experience or just Oslo being Oslo. We took our time at the Vigeland Fountain — honestly, there’s so much going on in those sculptures, you could stare for ages. The app let us pause whenever we wanted, which meant stopping for cinnamon buns halfway through (highly recommend).

I liked how the story unfolded bit by bit — not too fast, not too slow — and every clue made us look closer at stuff I’d usually ignore. At one point we got stuck on a riddle about a bronze sundial; my friend insisted it had something to do with aliens but… maybe she just wanted an excuse to sit down. By the time we reached The Wheel of Life at the end, there were more clouds rolling in and everything felt quieter. I still think about that last view over the park — kind of peaceful after all that running around.
