About this quest

An army is marching on Sibiu. You have days, perhaps less, before they reach the walls.

Your mission is to move through the medieval fortress from tower to tower and bastion to bastion, warning every craftsman, monk, and soldier who stands between the city and what is coming.

The carpenters must reinforce. The monks must ring. The bakers must prepare.

And somewhere in the armoury, the arsenal chief has something unusual in mind.

This is a walking quest through Sibiu's medieval defensive ring: along the great walls, through secret passages, past guild towers built by potters, carpenters, and archers, and into the squares where the city's history was decided.

The fortress of Sibiu has not fallen since 1241. You are here to keep it that way.

Highlights

  • - Recruit the craftsmen's guilds and reinforce the bastions before the invasion- Warn the monks of the Franciscan monastery and secure the bread supply for the soldiers- Uncover the secret mission linking the mayor, the arsenal chief, and eight mysterious bags- Hold the line at the walls and decide the fate of Sibiu

The mission: Your story in Sibiu

In a few days, an army of invaders will reach the walls of Sibiu.

The fortress must be prepared, and for that you will have to go and let everyone who cares for its defence know. The bastions and defensive towers are the most important targets to pass.
