Presentation

"Ascension" is a puzzle tale inspired by the historical character, Ernest Griolet (1819 – 1908). He was known to be a keen alpinist, archaeologist, and numismatist. He was also a friend and benefactor of St-Luc

 

Ernest had a dream: to build a lighthouse at the summit of Bella Tola. The lighthouse was to guide hikers and provide a shelter from which to admire the most magnificent sunrise. In the summer of 1866, Ernest organised a day of celebration to lay the lighthouse’s first stone. This game invites you to relive the ascent to the summit and to take part in the festivities carefully organised by Ernest! Your goal: solve a series of seven puzzles to unlock your reward!
