Great story! As someone who has visited Rome many times, I was surprised by how much this quest still taught me. The finale at the Pincio terrace, with that view over Rome, was the perfect ending. Already planning to come back for more.

We did this as a family and absolutely loved it. The story pulls you in from the first step — by the time we reached Castel Sant’Angelo we were genuinely rooting for Leo. The challenges were clever without being frustrating, and we noticed details in the architecture we’d completely missed on previous visits to Rome. A perfect way to see the city.
