Frequently asked questions

What makes the Curciu quest different from a standard church visit?
Instead of simply following an information route, you explore the fortified church through a treasure story and location-based clues. The experience is built around its defensive history and present-day setting.
Is this experience self-guided?
Yes. The Questo app guides you from clue to clue without a guide or fixed start time, so you can start when it suits you and pause along the way.
How many accesses does our group need?
Classic quests sell access per device and player. Each person who wants to solve clues on their own phone needs their own access.
