Storyline

Aachen was the chosen home of Charlemagne, the Father of Europe.

He spent much of his reign in this small city, and ruled his empire from here. He left a lot of things after his death, including the palace Chapel, which became the famous Aachen Cathedral.

However, many believe that his most precious possession is yet unfound. It is told that he hid his most valuable belonging somewhere in the city.

Great, game. Very much enjoyed the walk in Aachen. Looking forward to some more games of this creator. Just a question, how long did it take QuestoApp to bring it live? A friend of mine is very much disappointed of the way QuestoApp is treating the game creators and started building with a different community
