Early 18th century. We are in the midst of the War of the Spanish Succession. The kingdom of Louis XIV is threatened from all sides. Enemies are approaching, and the citadel must prepare to be besieged.
You have very little time to gather the necessary resources. Reflexion, a sharp eye and skill will enable you to find all the equipment you need to resist the attack. The governor will come to check everything after an hour, so be ready for the inspection!
Like many of Vauban's fortresses, the Besançon citadel had to be able to withstand a siege of at least three months at any time. To do this, the fortress had all the essential equipment and reserves: drinking water tanks, mill and bakery, gunpowder stores, arsenal... This new escape game invites you to put yourself in the shoes of a garrison on high alert.
Important!
Bring warm clothing, as the investigation could well lead you into dark and cold places!
In order to solve the investigation on time, please arrive 1/4 hour early (allow an extra 15 min climb from the Citadelle entrance).
