Italy>Siena>Secrets of Siena: The Family Feud
In 14th-century Siena, two noble families are locked in a silent war. The Salimbeni control the money. The Tolomei control the alliances.

And your family, the Terazzini, has been watching them both from the shadows, waiting for the right moment.

This outdoor quest takes you through Siena's most iconic locations: Piazza del Duomo, the ancient hospital of Santa Maria della Scala, the curved Gothic facade of Palazzo Chigi-Saracini, the shell-shaped Campo, and the oldest continuously operating bank in the world.

At every stop, the story deepens. And somewhere in the middle of it, you will discover that the most dangerous player in this game is the one you trusted most.

The mission: Your story in Siena

Two families rule Siena: the Salimbeni and the Tolomei.

For generations, they have competed for banking contracts, trade routes, and the loyalty of the city's guilds.

The tension between them is old enough to have its own rituals.

Your family has been watching them both from the shadows. Your father, Marco Terazzini, has spent years positioning your family to benefit from their rivalry without being consumed by it.

Now he has an assignment for you. What you do not yet know is that this game has more players than you think.

Frequently asked questions

What’s this all about?

You’re from the Terazzini family, sneaky and clever, stuck between two powerful families who want control of Siena. You’ll walk through old alleys, collect clues, and uncover secrets Salimbeni and Tolomei hid in plain sight. It’s strategy, drama, and a bit of betrayal—with beautiful scenery.

How long will it take, and how far will we walk?

About 42-72 minutes depending on how much you linger, and ~1.2 km (~1580 steps). Perfect for an afternoon outing without overdoing it.

Who will have the most fun with this quest?

Groups of friends who like competition and wit, families with older kids who enjoy puzzles, or couples wanting more than just sitting down for dinner—a mix of history + game + discovery.

When’s the best time to play this? Morning, afternoon, or evening?

Afternoon is great—light is soft, shadows are nice, the city isn’t packed. Evening works too if you like city light vibes, but expect fewer people and maybe cooler air.

Do we need to stick to a schedule or meet a guide?

Nah. Start whenever you want. The quest works any day. There’s no one watching or leading you—you’re in charge.

Is the family feud a real Siena story?
No. The feud is fictional. Siena and the locations on the route are real.
Is this a guided Siena tour?
No. The app guides a mission with clues and puzzles, without a guide, group or fixed departure.
How many tickets does our group need?
This classic quest sells access per device and player. Each person who wants to solve clues on their own phone needs their own access.
