Can you escape the fortress walls? It is 1389, and you are locked in a tower of a medieval castle. The door is guarded. The castle bustles with nobles, servants, craftspeople and entertainers. But it is also a mighty fortress fiercely defended by soldiers. The castle's massive walls protect it from enemy attack, while inside there is a maze of dark passageways. Stay calm, use your wits and consult the heraldic wheel on the front cover. If you follow the clues, solve the riddles and decode the puzzles, you will make your escape!
