You step off the quay and the stone streets of Auxerre seem to hold their breath. Narrow lanes thread between timbered houses, the Yonne murmurs below, and a parchment-scented map opens on your phone: the city itself is the playing field. The game’s clock begins — two hours to untangle a curse and reopen a hidden platform — and the pace of the old town quickens.
