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

Newport

The ruthless CEOs of Newport have set their sights on demolishing the historic Newport Castle, replacing it with a mini-golf course for their own selfish purposes. But when their plans are rejected by the council, they take matters into their own hands by planting a device at the base of the castle that will cause it to vanish forever.

As Newport's top agent, it's up to YOU to save the castle and preserve its rich history. Headquarters has gathered intel from across the city, and now it's time for you to use your skills to solve clues and crack the deactivation code before it's too late. But beware, the CEOs have hired henchmen who will stop at nothing to keep you from stopping their plan. Stay alert and good luck, Secret Agent!
