The Hollywood Heist*
Start
*heist = Raub
Attention, agent! After your successful mission in New York City, we want to give you a much bigger and more critical mission: A group of cybercriminals wants to steal the most valuable secrets of the Hollywood film studios – unpublished scripts, exclusive footage, and secret production plans. If they succeed, they could ruin the film industry and cause millions in damage! Your mission: Stop the Hollywood Heist!
Secret Service
Mission accepted!
Good! Here are the details: The hackers have left clues at various locations across California. You must collect the information, track down their hideout*, and prevent the attack. Be careful: The criminals are clever and might have set traps. Are you ready to save California and the world of cinema? The world is counting on you – and Hollywood is waiting! Good luck, agent!
Secret Service
Understood!
*hideout = Versteck
Welcome to California, agent! You will travel under the name of Alex Taylor. We have booked several hotel rooms across California. Our networks managed to find six different locations with clues. Collect all of them as soon as possible. Once you have all pieces of information, contact us directly. Use the same message function as for this message right now. Get to work, Alex Taylor!
Secret Service
Understood!
Choose your car for your mission, agent.

Your job on Alcatraz Island is done, agent. Keep going!

You’re doing your job great so far!
Well done, agent! Time to leave the national park!

Correct, but that's still not precise enough. Which city is meant?
Write two separate words.
The traffic jams after work won't make an arrival in time possible. Do you have a pilot's license?
Yes, I do.
No, I don't.
Fantastic! Then use our helicopter to fly to your target.
No problem. Then James will fly you to your target.
Good evening and welcome!
You lost your room card? No worries, I can give you a new one.
Give me your room number.
Good job, agent. Behind the left door the cybercriminals must have their base from which they operate.
The room card does not work. The hackers must have added another code to open the door. Solve the riddle to get the code!
Enter the code to open the door.
Fantastic job, agent! You arrived just in time. The hacking attack was already 90% complete, but you managed to stop it. We will now send a special unit to the hotel room to arrest the hackers when they return. You have saved the film production in Hollywood from significant damage and once again proven your skills! You can expect us to contact you soon with a new mission.
Secret Service
Thank you!
For now, however, take some time to relax in the Sunshine State.
Thank you even more!

An interesting choice. Now take the key and start your mission.
PART 1: One of the most popular sights in Hollywood is the Walk of Fame. It is a public sidewalk that stretches over almost one and a half miles and consists of more than 2,500 stars embedded in black floor tiles (Bodenfliesen). The stars bear (tragen) the names of famous and successful people, like film stars or singers. Each year, about 20 new celebrities are honoured (geehrt) with a star of their own. In 2015, for example, Jim Parsons, probably best known for his performance in the TV series The Big Bang Theory, was among the lucky few. However, the Walk of Fame is more than just a tourist attraction; there are several interesting facts worth knowing. First of all, what are the requirements if you want to be honoured with a star? There are five possible categories: film, television, music, radio, and live theatre. The American performer Gene Autry is the only person so far who has been awarded a star in all five categories. Basically, everyone can propose (vorschlagen) someone, but the person needs to agree and a payment of $ 30,000 has to be made. Long-lasting success is also necessary, so the candidates must have played a visible and active role in entertainment for at least five years. People who have already died can also be honoured with a star, but there has to be a waiting period of five years after death.

An old school agent, nice! Now take the key and start your mission.
You like it fast, right? Now take the key and start your mission.
A good choice, agent! Now take the key and start your mission.
Have you collected the hints from all six different places and want to continue?
Yes!
PART 2: Another interesting fact is that some stars have disappeared. So far, four stars have been stolen and not all of them could be found. You might wonder how something so famous could be stolen, especially when there are thousands of tourists visiting the Walk of Fame every day. One possible reason is that there was construction work going on at the time. As most of the tourists not only admire the stars but also walk on them, a big, expensive project was carried out to repair the damage - so nobody found it strange that stars were removed and carried away… You might be surprised, but not everybody dreams of having their own star. There are several celebrities (e.g. George Clooney) who are not interested, even though their friends and fans have asked them repeatedly to get one. No need to worry though – there are still enough people who would love to be represented with star on the Walk of Fame and there is sufficient space, so we will be able to see new stars joining the existing ones every year.
