Enigma: Margate Edition

Enigma Margate - a Bafflements Game

“A fabulous combination of Escape Game & walking tour around a beautiful seaside town.”

Hapless historian Herbert Lozenge, on a global lecture tour, has got himself into trouble again! He’s locked his presentation about historic Margate in secure travel cases and he’s password protected the files on his laptop too. Now for good measure he’s locked himself in his hotel room. 

With the world’s top tourism and heritage bigwigs waiting for his presentation, Herbert’s reputation – and Margate’s too – are in your hands!

Can you follow Herbert’s clues round sunny Margate and unlock the secrets of its history to rescue him?
