Homecomings can stir the soul—but for Luisa Valiena, returning to Rome's Trastevere district means unearthing painful truths. After nine years in the U.S., Luisa returns not for a reunion, but to fulfill her late brother Pietro’s final wish. Armed with a mysterious letter and fading memories, you’ll walk the streets of her childhood, uncovering secrets she was never meant to find.

This immersive self-guided quest blends emotional storytelling, real-world puzzles, and Trastevere’s timeless beauty. Your phone will guide you with exact directions, while each solved clue unlocks another piece of Luisa’s story, and another corner of Rome’s hidden past.

What makes this tour unique? It’s a mystery-driven journey through one of Rome’s most authentic neighborhoods, told through the eyes of a local returning home to heal and discover.

Play at your own pace. Come for the history, stay for the heartbreak, healing, and hidden gems.
