About this quest

You are in Rome, but not the Rome of tourists. You have been marked by the 'Disciples of the Blood,' and your fate hangs by a thread. 

To save yourself, you must immerse yourself in a high-adrenaline urban treasure hunt. This journey will lead you through iconic landmarks and hidden, lesser-known corners of the Eternal City. This is the first volume of the saga: "The Disciples of the Blood." 

Will you be able to complete the mission and escape your destiny before time runs out? 

Is this for you?

Who it's for

Escape room fans, couples and adult friend groups who enjoy hard puzzles under pressure will get a dark murder mystery that leads from Piazza di San Claudio past Piazza di Pietra and the Trevi Fountain to the Spanish Steps, over 1.8 km in around 90 minutes. If a blood-soaked cult story and medium to advanced puzzles sound more stressful than fun, or you are bringing young children, a lighter sightseeing quest will suit you better.

Frequently asked questions

How long does the game take, and does our group need more than one ticket?
Most players take around 90 minutes, walking and puzzles included, over a route of about 1.8 km. One ticket covers the whole group playing together, so friends or a couple can share a single phone and solve the puzzles as a team.
Where does the quest start and where does it finish?
It starts at Piazza di San Claudio and finishes at the Scalinata di Trinità dei Monti, the Spanish Steps. It is not a loop. On the way you pass Piazza Colonna, Piazza di Pietra, Piazza di Sant'Ignazio, the Trevi Fountain, Piazza Crociferi and Largo del Nazareno.
Is it suitable for children?
It is aimed at adults. The story is a murder mystery with horror elements about a blood cult hunting you, and the puzzles are rated medium to advanced. Young children are likely to find it too dark and too hard, so it works best for adults and older teens who like a challenge.
Do we need to book a time slot, and can we pause?
No time slot is needed. You start whenever you like on your phone, with no guide or group to meet, and you can pause and continue later. Make sure your phone is fully charged or bring a power bank, since the app runs the whole game.
