THE SECRET CLUBHOUSE
Coming Soon! Subscribe to find out more!
Jan Tleskac was an apprentice locksmith who claimed to have invented a flying bicycle. He met his death in mysterious circumstances, falling from the tower of St Jacob’s church. Years later a young boy stumbled across a suitcase containing Tleskac’s diary and a mysterious puzzle which Tleskak called “The Hedgehog in the Cage”. The boy and his friends hid the puzzle in their clubhouse where they received a visit from a masked man claiming to be the rightful owner of the puzzle. The boys ran home and reported the masked man to the police. Failing to believe such a story, the boys were dismissed. But, during the night, the officers become curious and decide to visit the clubhouse. You and your team have one hour to find the mysterious puzzle and the secret it hides before the masked man returns. Could Tleskac really have invented a flying bicycle?
Please note: this game is also in Ipswich and Prague (Mystery of Puzzle)

You will enter a state of hibernation. This will last for one hour and give you the chance to explore the afterlife. After your adventure you will need to use a defibrillator to return to life. However the defibrillator only works for one hour! If you do not find it in time, you may be stuck in hell forever! It could also be heaven, but in this case it’s nearly the same thing…
