About this quest
Parma, early morning. A persistent beep-beep, beep-beep pulls you from your routine. You usually ignore messages—but not this one. On the screen: "I am Stefano, come." Just those words. No explanation, no details. But something tells you this can’t wait.
You make your way to the Garibaldi statue, where a trail of cryptic clues begins. Who is Stefano? What does he want? And why did he choose you?
Step into a real-world mystery through the elegant streets of Parma. Solve puzzles, follow hidden clues, and uncover secrets in a story full of intrigue and surprises. This walk isn’t just a stroll—it’s a shared experience, perfect for curious minds and adventurous hearts. Bring someone along. Some messages are meant to be answered together.
