The site is accessible since 21st August. It is completely up to par with one of the most captivating audiovisual creations this fall. By participating, you and thousands of other detectives will create a true collective work of art: The Spiral.
The Spiral is first and foremost an interactive television series produced by Caviar Films, starring simultaneously all over Europe. The series tells the story of an artists’ community based in Copenhagen, and its charismatic leader. They plot together to steal six of the most prestigious paintings ever possessed by European museums (you can view the trailer HERE ).

The cleverest users will be able to win credits by playing a large array of amusing games, switching between real and virtual life. With those credits they will be able to trace the stolen artwork on a dynamic map of Europe.
