Balmius and the Treasure of the Grimaldi

In this small village of the Drôme des Collines, local legends and real history intertwine! But one thing is certain—you still have a major character to discover!

My name is Balmius, and I need your help to recover the treasure of my distant cousins, the Grimaldi! I am the protective spirit of the village, and I’m counting on you to join me on this treasure hunt!

Can you come along?

Together, we’ll explore Bathernay and, hopefully, uncover the Grimaldi treasure!

So, let’s set off on a new adventure in Ardèche Hermitage!
