About this activity

A smartphone-based exploration game set in Paris's Latin Quarter and Panthéon area that blends interactive puzzle-solving with historical storytelling. You navigate authentic streets using GPS, solve riddles, and complete photo challenges while uncovering narratives tied to figures like Marie Curie and the district's scientific and revolutionary past.

Paris hums beneath winter skies, its stone streets golden with history and secrets. In the hushed corridors of the Latin Quarter, a voice from another era calls out Marie Curie, out of time but never out of purpose. Her legacy, once sealed away, has begun to stir again. Someone is seeking the fragments of a formula too dangerous for any one mind. You follow her memories through cryptic courtyards, forgotten chapels, and echoing lecture halls. Each location is alive with whispers of revolt, revelation, and risk. As the city breathes around you, you uncover not an object, but a responsibility, a decision Marie never dared to make. Now, in the crossroads of science and memory, the story waits for you to finish it. The truth is out there, just hidden beneath cobblestones and whispers.
