It changed my perception of Portugal - History is a strange thing. You walk the streets of Lisbon, listening to stories from the 18th century — and then suddenly, past and present begin to blur in your mind. Live History Adventure has created something truly special — not just an audio guide, but a portal to another time. For two hours, I was someone else, living another life, making someone else’s choices. Pombal turned out to be a fascinating character — a cynical reformer who could wrap anyone around his finger. Isabel sings fado from a balcony, and even though I’m not sure fado existed in the 18th century, the melody somehow feels right for the time. The quests are fairly simple, but they make you think of history not as a set of museum artifacts, but as real, human drama. In the end, you get to choose your finale — a clever metaphor that reminds us: fate depends on the choices we make.

Excellent!!! - As a fan of historical narratives, I can say — this is a storytelling masterpiece. The creators have transformed the complex political events of the 18th century into a gripping thriller. For two hours, I wasn’t a tourist — I was part of the story: uncovering conspiracies, making tough moral choices, and immersing myself in the spirit of the Enlightenment. The audio production is top-notch — a true theatrical experience with professional voice actors. The characters feel real and multi-dimensional, especially the funny, spontaneous Angelica, and Malagrida — a dangerously compelling figure. The historical details are brilliantly executed — you can feel the depth of research behind every scene. The quests are clever and engaging, with witty remarks when you slip up. And the ending? Dramatically powerful — and you get to choose the fate! Live History Adventure has pioneered a whole new genre: interactive historical adventures!

This isn’t just an audio... - This isn’t just an audio guide — it’s a full-blown audio drama! For two hours, I was completely immersed in the 18th century, investigating an assassination attempt on the king side by side with the main character. The voice acting is phenomenal — especially Angelica, who guides you along the route. She feels so real and full of life! The plot is as gripping as the best detective stories, and the historical facts are delivered in such a captivating way that you remember them effortlessly. I learned so much about the political intrigues of the time, the 1755 earthquake, and the fate of the Jesuits. The quests really make you think — you're not just listening, you're actively taking part in the story. And the ending? Unexpected and dramatic!A whole new level of cultural tourism!

A brilliant creation! - Guys have pulled off a stunning historical thriller that immerses you right into the 18th century. Pombal isn’t just a reformer here — he’s a master manipulator, a political puppeteer who even managed to outsmart the king himself! What a setup! The tragedy of Távora and Aveiro is portrayed with haunting clarity — a brutal, noble-family drama that still sends shivers down the spine. The detective thread is crafted with finesse — every quest fits naturally into the unfolding story, adding intrigue at every turn. The historical detail is razor-sharp and deeply authentic — you can feel the weight of serious research behind every scene. The love story with Isabel brings warmth and humanity to the political intensity, making the experience all the more engaging. And the final moral choice? A graceful, thought-provoking crescendo that leaves you pondering the true price of power and progress. This isn’t just a quest — it’s a work of art. A literary gem powered by cutting-edge technology. Bravo!

Very different, fresh, emotional like a movie - Amazing! It felt like being part of the story in the 18th century, like playing a role in it. Finally, something fresh and new — we were so tired of standard city tours and wanted something different. Good part: you listen to stories while you are walking. Marques de Pombal felt so authentic, and Angelika — forever in my heart.
