Storyline

Aurelia was a highly educated Roman woman, known for her vast knowledge of history and science. She came to Olisipo as part of an imperial mission to catalogue Roman structures and artifacts.

Aurelia recorded her findings in a codex containing  information about Roman Lisbon’s secrets and hidden locations. However, the codex has mysteriously vanished, and participants must retrace her steps, deciphering clues based on her knowledge to uncover the missing document before it’s lost forever.
