Over deze quest

Guimarães has an abundance of myths and legends, and you’ll encounter them all on your mission to save the city. 

Solve challenges to unlock stories from this unique UNESCO World Heritage medieval town, where you will find exceptionally well-preserved and authentic examples of the evolution of a medieval settlement into a modern city.

Hoogtepunten

  • · See the church where the first king of Portugal was rumoured to be baptized

  • · Visit a castle that’s nearly a thousand years old

  • · Find out how Afonso Henriques defeated the five Moorish kings in the 12th century

  • · Discover the Palace of the Dukes of Bragança which is now an art museum

De missie: Jouw verhaal in Guimaraes

Legend has it that if Guimarães fell into the hands of the five Moorish kings, the rivers would flood the city until it sank into the ocean. Today, five of the descendants of the kings have unwittingly arrived in Guimarães, and the curse has been triggered. 
 
Realising this, you embark on a mission to save the city. You must travel to historical locations piecing together clues to stop the curse before it’s too late, and the city is doomed to the depths of the sea forever.

The experience was really nice and the information given about the city was very helpful. We had only a problem when locking the phone, where the app lost session and it put the re-starting location 500meters away from the point where we stopped so we had to walk there to be able to keep playing and then back to where we were. Apart from that everything was great.
