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

Tarbert

Evil Dr Weevil and his dastardly henchman Hamish are at it again! They have planted a devious device designed to hold Tarbert Castle to ransom. Dr Weevil has informed the local council that he has a sound wave machine trained on the castle, which will cause the walls to vibrate so much that they will crumble and come crashing to the ground. He is demanding a ransom of £100 million, but if you can solve the Clues, retrieve the code, and deactivate the device, you will thwart the mad doctor's latest plot.
