About this quest

Play a city exploration game and make your way through traboules in one of Lyon’s most iconic neighborhoods, the Croix-Rousse. Solve clues to learn about the former Lyonnais silk workers, the Canuts, and travel even back in time to discover Roman ruins. 

Are you ready to explore Lyon?

*Note: Some traboules and courtyards may need to be accessed by pressing the security button on the digicode pad.

Highlights

  • Experience life in Lyon in the past

  • Make your way through stunning passageways and courtyards

  • Meet a major feminine figure of Lyon, chef Eugénie Brazier, whose talent made Lyon the “French Capital of Gastronomy”

The mission: Your story in Lyon

After years of being asleep in storage, you awaken as Guignol the puppet. 
 
Confused and lost in this unfamiliar world, you explore La Croix-Rousse in search of your puppeteer, Laurent Mourguet.
 
But years of slumber have left gaps in your memory. Where are the Canuts of years gone by? And why does nobody seem to remember you?
 
You only know one thing for certain: you must find your old partner.
