Time Machine 1: Secret of the Knights (App)

Synopsis

For six hundred years, the highest honor in England has been to be made a knight of the Order of the Garter. King Edward III began this order sometime in the 1340s. Members wear a blue garter of cloth around their sleeves, on which is written “Honi soit qui mal y pense.” This is the motto of the Order of the Garter. Why did the best knights in England choose a garter as their symbol—and what does the motto mean? The secret of the knights is hidden back in time. You must travel back six centuries to find it, but to do so you will first have to become a knight yourself! The year is 1340. You have traveled back to the age of the knights. A squire has just accused you of being a sorcerer. You must prove yourself in a duel with quarter-staves, but you’ve never used them before. You can try to defend yourself or escape through the angry crowd. Your decision can lead you to safety or leave you stranded in time! ARE YOU READY TO FACE THE DANGER? Based on historical events, the app leads the user through many twists and turns. Secret of the Knights is the first of a 25-title series.
