About

Parnaso

Features
Read full description

Granada, 1526. Durante las bodas del emperador Carlos V, el poeta Juan Boscán acepta un reto del embajador veneciano Andrea Navagero: traer a la lengua castellana la música del soneto italiano. Así comienza Parnaso, una ascensión poética por la montaña de las musas. Encarna a Boscán y escala el monte Parnaso recogiendo 140 endecasílabos dispersos por sus laderas. Cada verso es un pergamino del color de su soneto: reúne cuartetos y tercetos para reconstruir, en tu cuaderno de cuero, diez sonetos del Renacimiento español. Y cada estrofa que completas te concede un «paso de aire», un salto imposible con el que alcanzar alturas antes vedadas. En el camino te cruzarás con las grandes voces del Siglo de Oro: Garcilaso de la Vega, amigo inseparable; Andrea Navagero, que te lanzó el desafío; Ana Girón; Cristóbal de Castillejo, que rechaza las nuevas formas italianas; el joven Francisco de Aldana, y el espíritu de Baldassare Castiglione. Sus diálogos tejen una historia sobre la amistad, la creación y la memoria. CARACTERÍSTICAS • Una montaña explorable en cinco regiones: el Jardín de la Fuente, las Laderas Españolas, los Jardines Italianos, el Bosque de Niebla y la Cumbre. • 10 sonetos históricos y 140 versos para recoger y reconstruir. • Mecánica de «pasos de aire»: completa estrofas para desbloquear saltos imposibles y nuevas zonas. • 6 personajes históricos con diálogo. • Cuevas ocultas, secretos y múltiples caminos hacia la cima. • Estética 3D low-poly con alma de pixel art y banda sonora ambiental. «El verdadero viaje no es llegar a la cima; es comprender que la poesía, como la amistad, trasciende incluso la muerte.» Una obra que convierte el estudio de la poesía del Renacimiento en arte interactivo: asciendes una montaña, resuelves los sonetos como rompecabezas y absorbes la historia literaria del Siglo de Oro al mismo tiempo. Un juego de José Luis Saorín Ferrer.
