About this activity

This ghost adventure is a true occult mystery with alchemy, centuries-old legends and a race-against-time finale. Every clue hides in something real: a plaque, a statue, a facade in Naples' historic centre. You will follow the traces of the alchemist Prince of Sansevero, decipher his codes and stop his return.

We offer 24/7 customer support and built-in hints to guarantee that you never stay stuck. Also, the app will provide real ghost stories and local legends about the landmarks you're visiting, making it a learning experience as much as it's a spooky one.

The game can be played anytime, at any hour, and will take you ~90-120 minutes. You can pause and resume whenever you want (even on another day).

Total walking distance involved is about 1.5 miles and the game will end close to where it started, making it easy to fit into your day.

It has intermediate difficulty and it's perfect for solo adventurers, couples, friends, families with older kids, or team-building events.

Itinerary

Become the main character of a self-guided ghost mystery game that turns Naples' historic centre into your own playing field. Your mission: the Prince of Sansevero, Naples' legendary alchemist, has risen from the afterlife, and with the city's destiny hanging in the balance you must race against time to stop him. You will start at the Church of Santa Luciella, home of the famous "skull with ears", where the app hands you the mission and your first lead. The trail takes you through the occult side of the centro storico, past many local landmarks like the Gesu Nuovo church and its coded pyramids, the Sansevero Chapel and Piazza San Domenico Maggiore. At each stop you will investigate your surroundings (inscriptions, statues, plaques, facades, etc.) to solve a puzzle that will reveal your next clue. Every solved puzzle unlocks the instructions for the next chapter, plus real ghost stories and legends about the locations you're visiting. You can play alone or bring your whole group. The game can be played all day, any day. It ends near the same area where it starts and will take you about 90-120 minutes. The total walking distance is about 1.5 miles (2.5 km).
