The mission: Your story in Split
The letters at first seemed complete gibberish, but with the right key, their true meaning would be revealed.
In the first letter was a set of puzzles that if solved, would reveal the necessary keywords, and in the end, would uncover the location of the tomb and treasure of the long-lost Roman emperor, Diocletian.

Diocletian’s Palace context
A Roman palace continuously adapted into a city
Diocletian’s Palace was built around the turn of the fourth century CE, but Split did not preserve it as an isolated ruin. Later residents reused the mausoleum as a cathedral and added medieval churches, fortifications and Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque buildings. The route explores a city formed by continuous adaptation of the Roman complex rather than a single frozen historical period. Playable languages: English.
