About this quest
Benalmádena, where the sea sparkles and legends stir. A shipwreck has struck, and Captain Isabella’s crew lies in peril. Only one thing can save them—a miraculous remedy created by the wise Ibn Al-Baytar. But time is short, and danger lurks on every path.
You are called upon by your old friend, Lord Hermann, to deliver the cure. As a noble knight, you must navigate the town’s winding roads, solve puzzles, follow hidden clues, and face trials worthy of a tale—temptations, pirates, lowlands... even giants. Luckily, you may find help in the spirit of Don Quixote himself.
This journey through Benalmádena is more than a walk—it’s a heroic adventure for friends and families alike. Will you rise to the call?
