"What's in the box? Cat Q!" can now be heard in the Technical Collections Dresden. The cute, half-dead cuddly toy is the main character and namesake of the first escape room on quantum physics in Germany for children and young people, which will be open from 30 April 2024. The mysterious box conceals a "quantum flat" with 17 puzzles. Phenomena from the crazy quantum world can be experienced here with all the senses - accompanied by the voice of comedian Olaf Schubert. The project was developed by the Dresden-Würzburg Cluster of Excellence ct.qmat together with award-winning game designer Philipp Stollenmayer. The patron is Michael Kretschmer, Minister President of the Free State of Saxony.
