Detour
View it or Carve it

Detour is a task which players needs to choose between two tasks, each with its pros and cons. The choices are VIEW it or CARVE it.

In View it, you have to search the Duomo for the Tomb of Filippo Brunelleschi. Once you have found it, read the description of the man. There is a building designed by him which was not finished yet. Head to that building and search for your next clue. This task is not physically demanding, but the players who don't have good directions may find themselves lost in the busy city.
Task: Give me the name of the unfinished building and send me a photo of the site.

In CARVE it, you have make your way to a nearby sandstone shop and purchase a lump of sandstone and carry it back to the Duomo. Once back there, you have to carve the angel in the middle on the bronze door. Once the craftsman is pleased, carry the crafting to the Oratorio dei Vanchetoni and receive your next clue from a nun there. This task is physically and steady hands demanding, players without these qualities may find themselves stuck.
Task: Give me the years that the bronze doors were made and a screen shot of Oratorio dei Vanchetoni.

Route Info
Make your way to the auditorium in Torino. Once there, search for your next clue in the Grand Hall.

Players race to the auditorium.
