The crowd is waiting. The lights burn bright. But something vital is missing. Carmen Amaya, Barcelona’s legendary flamenco dancer, is moments away from taking the stage when disaster strikes. Her iconic shoes are gone. No backups. No performance without them.

Your search takes you through the rhythm and soul of the city, past buzzing cafés, hidden studios, and alleys where music still lingers in the stone. Every clue leads deeper into Barcelona’s artistic heart. Someone moved the shoes, but who? And why now? With time running out, only you can save the night and help Carmen make history.

Not just a game. A city. A secret. A story only you can finish.
