What to expect

Play a thrilling adventure game where your mission is to break free from the city limits of Lyon. You will follow clues to discover fascinating places in the old town and their mysterious histories.

Discover monuments from the Renaissance, uncover secret passageways that were used to escape from the Nazis, and learn about the enchanting local history.

Each clue will lead you from one place to another, giving you exact directions, so you won’t need a map, a GPS or a guide. When you solve it and guess the answer, the secret story of that place is unlocked.

Storyline:
