Escape Room Experience:

OPERATION SPYCATCHER

Once in a while, the museum is transformed into an immersive ‘escape room’ experience in which you have the run of the main gallery after-hours, to follow themed clues and solve puzzles hidden within the museum.  Under the vigilant gaze of your experienced handler, you and the rest of your team, once briefed, become Special Operations Executive (S.O.E) agents, that have just landed by Horsa Glider - behind enemy lines…

Your mission?  Solve the puzzles and crack the clues to find a missing list of suspected double agents and reveal the identity of the duplicitous spy.  This information must be placed into the hands of a senior member of the War Office within the 45 minutes, otherwise it will fall into enemy hands and put the mission to end the war at risk!

HOSTED BY...

Hosted by experienced team-building facilitator and crime fiction author Helen Saxton of Dead Herring, as your handler, keeping the energy pacy, you are sure to have a memorable and inspirational evening for your teams in the museum!

The whole experience takes up to 90 minutes, including snacks and drinks, briefing, 45-minute puzzle-solving activity, debriefing and congratulations with ‘photo-booth’.

THE PUZZLES

Once you've received your video briefing on board a full size replica section of a horsa glider, you have to find the clues leading to eight different hands-on puzzles, hidden around the museum and corresponding to stories and themes in the museum.  Each one you solve reveals a clue to the next to the ultimate aim of decoding the name of the double agent.  Only with this vital intelligence can you escape the museum and deliver your findings to the War Office for your congratulations!

RATES

£45.00 per person with a minimum group booking requirement.

Includes one glass of house wine/ fruit juice per person, hot served canapes and a congratulatory group photo opportunity in the trench or shelter.
