Bel: les Peces de la Revolució

Bel and the Pieces of the Revolution is an ideal game for families with a curiosity about industrial heritage.

Sometimes we think that things work because they do... and that's it. But we don't know that there are little things behind it that are essential for everything to work... Without the contribution of each piece, of each person, big or small, the great event of the 19th century in Catalonia would never have happened: the Industrial Revolution, which changed the social, economic and cultural landscape of our country.

"Hello! My name is Bel and I am Chrononaut! I sail through time, visiting very special places and experiencing thrilling episodes of our history! In one of my chrononautical journeys, the Clock of the Industrial Revolution crumbled and the different pieces were scattered all over Catalonia... That is why there are people and places full of knowledge that are disappearing before our eyes! We need to recover the pieces and rebuild the Clock before the effect of the disappearances are permanent! Luckily, these pieces are guarded by people we can rely on. They are people like you, who in one way or another were important to the Industrial Revolution at home. We must go and find them, and by rebuilding the clock little by little, we can make the time of our history flow again!

Will you help me recover the Pieces of the Revolution?”
