About this quest

This experience will allow you to develop a beautiful relationship with the oldest area of San Sebastián. Through its history and its most important spaces, you will be able to understand why it was almost entirely destroyed and what happened afterwards.
 
The area, filled with buildings built more than a hundred years ago, right alongside newer constructions, seamlessly combines both the modern and the historical.

Highlights

  • Go back in time to the early 19th century to feel how San Sebastian rose (literally) from the ashes.

  • Discover all the secrets and gossip surrounding many fascinating buildings.

  • Explore ancient churches, convents, city wall remains, and more!

  • Learn why, historically speaking, local San Sebastianers dislike the French and British!

The mission: Your story in San Sebastián

You are Mari, the most ancient and powerful Basque goddess. Queen of nature and personification of the earth itself, you rule over the land with great wisdom. Alas, today you have awoken to discover that the devil himself has stolen your two sons, Mikelats and Aterrabi!

Descending to San Sebastian from your cavern home in Mt. Urgull, you will use all the magic at your disposal, and the assistance of your mythical friends, to outsmart the Devil and save your children from his evil clutches.
