We've got a mission for you in

Exeter

Intelligence has been received that the notorious mad scientist, Dr Badden-Madd, has struck again. In his unrelenting pursuit of global domination, he has planted a time-shifting device along the Exeter City Wall. Once activated, the device will transport all those within the city walls back to Roman times, with the evil genius ruling as Baddenus Maximus and his blood-thirsty gladiators as his henchmen. The city is counting on YOU to deactivate the device and save the day!

Spy Mission Through Exeter - City Wall, Priory, and Castle

Are you ready for an immersive and exciting spy mission in the heart of Exeter? Your adventure begins at the Exeter Civic Centre, where you'll receive your mission briefing and the clues to stop Dr Badden-Madd's sinister plans. Journey through the city, exploring the St Nicholas Priory, medieval Exe Bridge ruins, Catacombs, and Rougemont Gardens and Castle as you uncover the hidden intel that will lead you to the device's deactivation code.

But beware-Dr Badden-Madd's gang is everywhere, and time is of the essence. Only the most skilled secret agents will be able to solve the clues, crack the code, and save the city from Roman rule.

Exeter is counting on YOU, Top Agent… Can you complete the mission and save the day?
