La mission : Votre histoire à Porto

Over the last decade, relations between the magical and non-magical worlds have slowly begun to improve. More and more wizards believe that careful contact is better than total isolation.

Thus, an experimental cultural exchange programme was born: a rare chance for a limited number of non-magical people to find traces of magic hidden in real cities. Porto was chosen first. For centuries its old monasteries, trading streets, towers, pharmacies, stairways and bookshops have existed side by side with the magical world. No wonder it is sometimes hard to tell where history ends and magic begins.

Today, you are among the lucky few who have a chance to walk the streets of Porto and spot traces of magic where others see only façades and random details. Each solved riddle briefly lowers the protective charms and opens the way to the next location.

Complete every trial, and the experiment will be declared a success. As a reward you will unlock a bonus location – one the local wizarding community considers among the most atmospheric corners of Porto.
