Highlights

Venice is the world's most romantic city, and now you can live a love story worthy of its most famous seducer. You're a romance writer on a research trip when a charming stranger claims to be Casanova's descendant. Swept into real-life intrigue, you follow his trail through Venice's most seductive streets and secrets. Over 10 chapters, you'll crack puzzles using mirror reading, Morse code, binary, and vowel ciphers to unlock each chapter of your Venetian love story. No guides, no fixed times. Start when you like, pause for a spritz, and let the app lead you through hidden calli and secret corners at your own pace. Your route passes Casanova's actual birthplace on Calle Malipiero, the ancient Cantina do Spade where he once drank, the erotic poet Baffo's home at Campo San Maurizio, and the Palazzo Ducale where Casanova was famously imprisoned before his legendary escape. The journey ends at the Bridge of Sighs. Perfect for couples and anyone who loves Venice's hidden history.

About Venice

Venice floats on a lagoon of more than a hundred islands, a city of canals, palaces and bridges with no cars, where every walk ends somewhere unexpected.

The Grand Canal sweeps through the city in a great reversed S, lined with palaces and crossed by the Rialto Bridge. Near its mouth, Piazza San Marco gathers St Mark's Basilica with its golden mosaics, the Doge's Palace, the Bridge of Sighs and the tall brick campanile. Water buses and gondolas show the city from the angle it was built to be seen.

Top-ranked sights in Venice: St. Mark's Square (Piazza San Marco), St. Mark's Basilica (Basilica di San Marco), Grand Canal.
