Frequently asked questions
Can I jump into the Medici drama without knowing Renaissance history?
Yep. The story sets the scene for you—think “political thriller in 15th-century Florence,” explained as you go.
I’ve got a dinner reservation soon—can we finish before aperitivo?
Most players wrap it up in roughly an hour-ish, and you can pause for photos or gelato. It’s flexible, not a marathon.
What’s the vibe: dusty history or edge-of-your-seat intrigue?
Intrigue first, history woven in. You’re chasing clues tied to real places and power plays, not reading a textbook.
Is this actually a good date idea?
Totally. Share the clues, trade theories, then toast the “case cracked” near the Duomo or on the bridge at sunset.
How brainy are the puzzles—are we going to get stuck?
They’re clever but doable. Built-in hints nudge you along so the story keeps moving.
Is the Medici conspiracy historically true?
Is this a Medici history tour?
