In the opulent halls of the Palace of the Kings of Navarre in Olite, Charles III 'the Noble' ruled with splendor unmatched in 15th-century Europe
Olite — The Royal Ledger Conspiracy
You are a descendant of King Charles III's most trusted courtiers, summoned by a cryptic map to Olite today.
Centuries ago, within the opulent halls of the Palace of the Kings of Navarre,
Charles III, the building and dreaming king of Olite.
« « His towers were petrified dreams, but their foundations rested on the sand of our coffers. » »— Anonymous chronicler, 15th century
The Splendor and Bankruptcy of the Kingdom of Navarre
Charles III of Navarre, who reigned from 1387 to 1425, was an emblematic figure of medieval royalty, more concerned with the splendor of his court and the magnificence of his palace than with financial austerity. Heir to a strategically located kingdom between France and Castile, he strove to enhance its prestige by emulating the most lavish courts in Europe. The Royal Palace of Olite became the jewel of this ambition: a unique architectural complex, dotted with towers of unexpected shapes, exotic gardens housing rare animals, and richly decorated halls, where jousts, banquets, and festivities followed one another relentlessly.
This policy of grandeur, however, came at an exorbitant cost. The lavish expenses for construction, court maintenance, diplomatic gifts, and armies left the royal treasury depleted. Upon Charles III's death in 1425, the Kingdom of Navarre was heavily indebted, a burden that his daughter, Blanche I, and subsequent rulers struggled to manage. The Royal Ledger, if it existed, would have been the key to understanding the extent of this financial crisis and, perhaps, the testament of a king caught between his dream of magnificence and the harsh reality of numbers.

You arrive in Olite, open the link on your phone, the story starts. It's the modern outdoor escape game: audio narration, camera puzzles, final code unlocked as a team. No install. No need to book a time slot.
Q02What walking pace should we expect?
Easy stroll: between stops you walk 3 to 7 minutes. No tough climbs unless flagged on the product page. If you really want to push, you can jog between stops, but that's not the point.

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.
