Overview
This is no ordinary treasure hunt. You carry a satchel of real magical artefacts, meet characters in shops and cafes along the way, and solve escape-room-style puzzles hidden in York's historic streets.

What To Expect
Can you graduate from the Clueniversity of Magic? Your final exam is a single mission: unmask the imposter wizard hiding among the staff by solving clues across York's historic streets.
Part escape room, part treasure hunt, this outdoor adventure is played with a GPS-guided app on your phone and a satchel of real magical artefacts. You'll visit landmarks and hidden corners of the city, meet characters along the way, and crack puzzles that test your observation, deduction and teamwork.
Teams of 2 to 6 players. Up to 3 hours 15 minutes to finish, including time for a break; most teams finish well within that. Best for ages 10 and up. Great for families, friends and team building.
Additional Info
- Confirmation is instant and will be received at time of booking
