The mission: Your story in Turin
You are a magic and occult enthusiast who has lived in Turin for some months now, a city at the convergence of both dark and light forces. You’ve also recently come across a spell that is supposed to let you see into the Turin of centuries past.
When you cast the spell, though, something goes wrong. You find yourself separated by a veil from the people who walk past you, blurred as if through a thick fog. This isn’t the effect you intended, so you must find a way to go back to normal as soon as possible.
In a city like Turin, you know you might find someone willing to help you, but also great danger…

What’s the story here?
You’ve cast a spell to see Turin’s past… but it backfired. Now you’re stuck between worlds, walking through foggy streets where people see you as a shadow. You’ve got to solve arcane puzzles, explore hidden corners, and find a way back to normal before the veil consumes you.
Who is this for?
Folks who like mystery + magic, couples wanting something atmospheric, friends who enjoy solving riddles together, and tourists craving a spooky twist on sightseeing.

Expect between 71-101 minutes, about 4.9 km, or ~6,440 steps. Enough distance to feel like you've traveled through Turin’s layers of mystery without tiring out completely.
Is this good for an evening outing / date?
