About this quest

Montpellier, 1944. Beneath its sunlit streets and charming façades, a silent war rages. While flipping through an old copy of Kipling’s If in a forgotten café, you're thrust into the shadows of history - where every whisper might be a warning, and every passerby a spy. 

As a newly recruited agent of the Resistance, your mission is clear: solve puzzles, follow coded clues, and help a group of young rebels free their captured comrades. The SS are closing in, and time is running out.

Walk through Montpellier like never before—uncover hidden corners, test your wit, and feel history come alive. This is more than a game: it's a journey of memory, courage, and connection. 

Bring your friends or family, and let every step tell a story worth remembering.

Highlights

  • Following the trail of the French resistants around the city.

  • You'll collect clues and pass on coded messages in order to help liberate the city.

  • Along your way you'll help free prisoners, discover hideouts of resistants and also learn how invisible ink is made.

The mission: Your story in Montpellier

Whilst reading an old 1944 edition of Kipling’s If, in an old café, you're cast back in time to help a group of young French resistants in their missions to free their country and imprisoned citizens. 

Assigned a codename and with some basic tools, you'll have to use your guile in outwitting the enemy in order to help the rebels escape. In this period where your neighbour could be an enemy agent or, worse still, an informer, you can’t be too careful.  

The SS are hot on your trail.
