Over deze quest

Bologna, 1880. The trains have arrived, the city buzzes with newfound speed, and Italy is still catching its breath as a young nation. But one thing hasn’t changed - murder still stalks the alleyways. 

You are Andrea Satutto, Italy’s most brilliant detective, summoned to crack the case of Giacomo di Pepoli: a powerful man found dead in the heart of Bologna’s old town. Clues hide in plain sight, whispered through cobbled streets and behind noble facades. With every step, you’ll follow the trail, solve puzzles rooted in history, and uncover a story few dare to tell. 

Grab your sharpest friends or your bravest family, and walk your way through one of Bologna’s darkest secrets. The truth is waiting—but only if you’re clever enough to find it.

De missie: Jouw verhaal in Bologna

The year is 1880. Bologna booms. The railroads were built just a few years ago and Italy is still young. Things are moving quickly, faster than ever before in the city’s history.

You are Andrea Satutto, the famous Italian detective, and you have been called in to figure out another "unsolvable" murder. You arrived from Rome this morning and, as usual, your mind is thrilled. Another mystery! You grin in excitement.

The victim is the infamous and affluent Giacomo di Pepoli, the head of Bologna’s finest family.
