THE STORY BEGINS

You’ve just stepped into something extraordinary.

Your handler has located the stolen Meridian research file inside the Aurelian Archive. There is one window to recover it: the shift change before midnight. Eight fragments of an undercover agent’s dossier reveal the staff entrance, access phrase and final retrieval code. Everything you need is in the dossier. No real hacking, outside research or technical knowledge is required.

Work through 8 connected puzzles: logic grids, ciphers, timetables, and bring the clues together for a final answer. Play at your own pace, with two progressive hints for every puzzle.

Play times are estimates and vary by group. Ages are guidance; younger players may need an adult.
