A royal wedding hides a secret, and detective cat Heraclaws Purrod is on the case. This self-guided exploration game traces the origins of Brussels, from the old port at Sainte-Catherine and the first city walls through the Grand-Place and Mont des Arts to the colossal Law Courts, gathering clues to the royal mystery at every stop.

Along the way you solve challenges in the Questo app, learn historical facts and local myths, and discover hidden spots that only locals know and most tourists pass by. The walk covers about 4.5 km and takes around 2.5 hours, with no time limit.
