Who’s running this adventure?

You are! You won’t need a Game Master for this experience, everything is baked into the story and site. We use a system called Telescape which integrates illustrations, puzzles, audio clips and hints into a single all encompassing experience.

What sort of experience should I expect to have?

After a brief Telescape tutorial, you and your team will be able to navigate 360° animated environments to look for clues and solve puzzles that will help you crack the case. The experience is expected to take between 60-90 minutes from start to finish.

How many people can play?

We recommend up to 4 players, with an absolute max of 8.

How can I play with someone who isn’t in the same place I am?

When puzzling remotely with others, we recommend connecting over a second platform, such as Discord or Zoom, to communicate. You’ll be able to get a sense of what the other sleuth is up to over Telescape, though communication is key, as always!

Can I get a hint if I get stuck?

Furlock Holmes will be with you throughout the case and is available to provide in game hints should you need them.

How young can the players be?

We recommend young players (8-12) play with parents, but there are thorough hints if they’d prefer to try on their own.

How much is it?

$19.95 for you and your team

Once I have the link, does it expire?

After you start the experience, you have 120 hours to complete the mission.
