ABOUT THE GAME
Versailles, 1700: the affair causing a stir throughout the Kingdom of France and all
of Europe is the Spanish succession. Who will King Charles II name in his will as
heir to his innumerable possessions? It is at this point that Charles-Louis de
Farevolles turns up at the Court of Louis XIV, with neither influence at Court nor
money.
He is, however, armed with the ambition to become a diplomat, in the hope
of being sent specifically to Spain, where he yearns to be reunited with the maiden
Elvira, his childhood sweetheart. Taking on the role of this character, you must enter
the Court and acquire its customs.
You will need to choose your allies, unfurl plots
involving spies and courtiers, and, in the words of the Minister for Foreign Affairs; be
prepared to perform innumerable services!
