Sato Code

An ancient secret lies hidden in the alleys of Solothurn. It is older than the church itself: the Omega Codex. Greek was once considered the oldest language in the world and shaped culture for centuries, until the Bible and Latin gained the upper hand in the 4th century. But one symbol has stood the test of time: the Omega. It appears repeatedly in Christian writings as a symbol of completion. Rumor has it that Solothurn, the city of sacred numbers, holds a fragment of the Omega Codex. The mission: follow the cryptic clues, decipher ancient symbols, and discover hidden objects throughout the city. With every discovery, you’ll get one step closer to the relic.
