Traquelero is a gamebook where readers choose the direction they want to go in a most unusual national park, full of adventure, curious creatures, and different peoples. Discovering happiness is the goal, reached through advice from the people encountered in the park, as well as from tasks and mini-quests within, each holding a message.
The adventure begins as a 15-year-old boy heads off on a school trip to Seaverwerk-Traquelero National Park. His class is excited by the trip, but the boy is not happy at all. He misses his old school and old friends.
Distracted by a pond full of tiny whales, the boy is separated from his class and gets lost. He finds a park ranger in the middle of a grassy plain, and from there embarks upon a Quest for Happiness, consisting of finding love, money, and wisdom.
Readers also set off in the national park on their own quest, where they encounter grasslands, desert, mountains, the ruins of a town named Helequaint, and its sister city (not ruined) named Helequaint II. There is also a jungle, a lake, and an expanse of obsidian, all located in this park.
The quest has begun!
