Read first?
01
When to read first
Read the novel first if you want Follett's version of who survives the building of that cathedral. The game tells that story.
02
When playing first is fine
Play first if you would rather meet the story as an adventure game and will not read the book. Do not do both and expect the second one to surprise you.
03
Why
Some adaptations borrow a setting. This one is the book, scene by scene, with a mouse cursor.
