THE STORY BEGINS

You’ve just stepped into something extraordinary.

Pip promised to watch the mountain nursery. But the smallest egg is missing from its basket! A trail of muddy marks leads into the garden, and the nursery’s clever little locks are all closed. Will your team help Pip follow eight clues and find a safe, warm place for the egg? Keep every answer: the final lock needs your earlier discoveries.

Work through 8 connected puzzles: route tracing, pattern rotation, number sequences, visual decoding, logic deduction, 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.
