The Secret Oath of Vasio Vocontiorum
« Memory is the treasure and guardian of all things. »— Cicero
The Rise of Vasio Vocontiorum
Vaison-la-Romaine, once known as Vasio Vocontiorum, was the capital of the Voconces, a Celto-Ligurian people. After a defeat against Julius Caesar's troops between 69 and 52 BC, the city became an ally of Rome, retaining a degree of autonomy. This period marked the beginning of an intense Romanization that transformed Vaison into one of the most prosperous cities in Gallia Narbonensis, renowned for its wealth and illustrious citizens.
Figures like Sextus Affranius Burrus, Praetorian Prefect under Nero and a key figure of the Empire, or the historian Trogue Pompée, a native of the region, attest to the importance of Vasio Vocontiorum. The writings of Pliny the Elder and Pomponius Mela describe it as a city of great splendor, featuring an ancient theater, vast villas like the House of the Laurelled Apollo and the House of the Silver Bust, and an ingenious hydraulic network. The Ouvèze River and the Roman Bridge are silent witnesses to this grandeur.

Outdoor escape game format: no physical locks, no actor, no fixed time slot. You start when you want, progress through Vasio Vocontiorum, Vaison-la-Romaine, France with your phone, and the city itself is the set. More immersive on local history, more flexible in pace.
Q02How long does it take to finish The Voconces' Lost Pact — Uncover Rome's Hidden Alliance?

Q03Do we need to be several people to enjoy it?
No, solo works very well. The outdoor escape game format in self-guided mode leaves room for introspection: read the story at your pace, hunt clues like a detective. 2-6 players is more social, solo is more contemplative.
Q04Best season to explore Vasio Vocontiorum, Vaison-la-Romaine, France like this?
Spring and autumn are the best seasons: mild temperatures, fewer tourists, gorgeous light. Summer is also great but go for early morning before 11 or late afternoon.
