About this experience

Take on a plot against Michelangelo’s masterpiece in a self-guided Florence exploration game. Saving Michelangelo turns the city’s cobbled streets into a sequence of real-world puzzles, asking you to look closely at places you might otherwise walk past. Begin near Santo Spirito and follow the story on your phone, with the flexibility to stop for a break or continue at your own pace.
