Storyline

The year is 1910. Sintra is the pinnacle of romanticism as the nobility flees to their summer estates where the cooler climate offers protection against the scorching city heat.

You’re Vitória Pais, a journalist from The Republican, Lisbon’s main newspaper. Your last article was deemed too feminist. Ugh. Since then, you aren’t taken seriously.

You’ve been sent to investigate supernatural events occurring in Sintra. You’re determined to prove yourself as a worthy journalist.

Beautiful game, that gives a small glimpse of Sintra, although there are many more things to do in this fairy town.

prepare for a real hike with children or elderly this might be too intense. twice the same solution word could be changed. and one solution consists of three words which is odd since there is one good word that would suit the solution perfectly.
