About this activity

Chase Dante Alighieri's lost manuscript page through Verona's historic centre in this GPS-guided exploration game. Solve riddles, complete photo challenges, and unlock stories at iconic landmarks while discovering the city's art, culture, and medieval heritage on foot.

Verona, a city of arches and whispers, plays host to a poet in crisis. Dante Alighieri — exiled genius, self-declared legend, and world’s most dramatic ghost — has lost a page of The Divine Comedy. Not just any page, but the one that sings with Verona’s deepest secrets. Without it, his masterpiece remains unfinished, and his reputation hangs in the balance.

Now you, newly appointed “Buddy,” must chase verses through marble plazas, tragic balconies, and timeworn bridges. With Dante’s voice in your ear and riddles at your feet, each step becomes poetry, each puzzle a chance to rewrite history. Find the missing page, and let Verona’s story — and Dante’s ego — shine once more.

You came to explore. You stayed to save the story.
