Which noble’s betrayal in the castle nearly toppled a dynasty overnight? Why did thousands once flood the Civic Arena under the cloak of secrecy? And what curious relic draws midnight pilgrims to the Basilica’s shadowed altar?

Every turn brings new suspense, guiding you from hushed sanctuaries to grand battlegrounds and hidden alleys. Follow the pulse of rebellion, devotion, and faded glory as Milan reveals itself with every step.

Press play and uncover the city where every stone tells a secret.
