Every explorer gets an agent's dossier: a code name, a superpower and a mission sheet. At thirteen points there are search and observation tasks, each worth a tick, and the counters run all the way: cats, old balconies, stones. At noon comes the Gabriadze tower with its angel, and at the end the ticks are counted and titles awarded: Trainee, Agent or Keeper of the Old Town.

Questions
What if we are running late for the tower?
The Patriarchate shrinks to a minute and the tunnel to two; we never miss the tower at noon.
Can my child come with a sister or brother?
Yes, the mission is designed for a team: the counters are shared, and everyone gets their own title.
