Part scavenger hunt, part escape room, Codebreakers is a series of challenging puzzles, codes and clues leading you across galleries and through the Museum.

Your mission is to identify an agent from the mysterious Shadow Society who is intent on raiding the Museum’s collection! Hire a codebreakers kit and allow students to explore and work in teams to identify the secret agent intent on raiding the Museum’s collection!

One kit is suitable to be shared between four participants. This challenging trail is suitable for year 6 students and above, and we would recommend an adult per group of students. Please allow at least two hours to complete Codebreakers. 

Hire a Codebreakers Kit from the information desk to help you on your mission or book in advance. You will receive a Vade Mecum Guide to Codes and Ciphers booklet to keep and record your evidence in. You will be asked to leave ID at the information desk to hire a kit. Students will require their own device capable of reading QR codes to complete the program.  

The Codebreakers kit, featuring a little black bag, jigsaw pieces and glasses, lies on a wooden floor.
