What is Escape to Love?

Escape to Love is a City Escape experience designed by the Spanish company Futura Vive Technologies for the City Council of Hornachuelos, Cordoba in which participants (groups, or individuals) will have the mission to help save the two lovers, Doña Leonor and Don Alvaro, from a deadly fate thanks to intervention of a future space-time traveller called Jax Astra de Rivas, and descendant of the Duke of Rivas, author of the play La Fuerza del Sino, theatrical piece written in prose and verse and which is one of the jewels of Spanish romantic theater. The play inspired Giuseppe Verdi to create the opera La Forza del Destino, whose second act takes place entirely in the town of Hornachuelos.

 

In her role as narrator, the fictional character Jax Astra de Rivas makes use of the most advanced technology, including Humanoid Robots, holographic equipment, virtual reality simulators as well as other technologies such as Augmented Reality and the Metaverse.

 

In this exciting and thrilling adventure, participants will be able to interact with the latest cutting edge technology.

 

They will also be able to access different activities through a fully functional Metaverse. Some of the functionalities of the Hornachuelos Metaverse are:

 

  • Walk through the streets of Hornachuelos and know the main tourist attractions.
  • Visit the Hornachuelos Virtual Tourist Office open 24/7.
  • Networking Room
  • Virtual Hornachuelos Conference Room.
  • Meet Tokyo the Robot and Escape to Love Characters.
  • Music Playback (overture of Force of Destiny).

 

Through an application-assisted gamification process, participants will be able to immerse themselves in the rich history and cultural heritage of Hornachuelos and learn about the Roman Empire, the Arab conquest of Spain and the history of Hornachuelos in general through historical characters such as the Duke of Rivas, Giuseppe Verdi and Ibn Marwan, who was known in the Christian kingdoms as “the Galician” as he came from the north of what is now Portugal.
