They are a really good and fun way to explore a new town or city, or your local area... Suitable for all ages. We are in our 70's.

We've got a mission for you in

Gloucester

Attention all Secret Agents! We have received alarming intelligence from the city of Gloucester. It seems that the greedy property developer, Mike Way, MD of DOORS (Destroy 'Orrible Old Ruin Sites), is on a mission to destroy the city's heritage. Our undercover field agent, Cam O'Flage, has reported that Mike has placed sonic masonry eroding devices in key locations around the city. These devices will cause historic buildings to collapse, making way for DOORS' development plans, which will fund their sinister schemes. We cannot let this happen! We need the best of the best to follow the intel and solve the clues to crack the deactivation code and save the day. Be on high alert, agents - Mike's goons could be hiding around any corner, ready to intercept you!
