HIDDENCITY ANNOUNCES MORIARTY’S GAME, A BRAND NEW MYSTERIOUS CITY TRAIL FOR LONDON
A SERIES OF CRYPTIC CLUES ON A JOURNEY ACROSS LONDON, FROM 2 DECEMBER 2015
A MODERN-DAY ADVENTURE INSPIRED BY ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE’S SHERLOCK HOLMES NOVELS
TICKETS ON SALE FROM 24 NOVEMBER 2015
Cryptic city trail innovator HiddenCity announces Moriarty’s Game, a brand new, immersive London adventure. Intrepid explorers will be able to play Moriarty’s Game from 2 December 2015, with tickets on sale from 24 November 2015.
The 28thtrail created by HiddenCity, Moriarty’s Game is inspired by characters from Arthur Conan Doyle’s novel, The Final Problem, published in 1893. Players will find themselves exploring exhibitions in a Mayfair Townhouse, celebrating contemporary architecture and drinking in Georgian public houses as they solve puzzles sent via text messages, in search of Moriarty’s hidden safe house.
‘Professor James Moriarty invites you to celebrate the finest minds of London by solving his cryptic challenge, which he has personally prepared. Your goal is to find his London safe house. Succeed and he will present you an offer you won’t refuse.’
Each clue directs participants to a hidden location within walking distance, and asks a specific question about the surroundings. If participants reply with the correct answer they receive the next clue.
In Moriarty’s Game, explorers will interact with the real world. Progressing on their journey, participants might find themselves studying botanical books, inspecting chemical flasks or delivering codewords, as they uncover Moriarty’s true nature.
HiddenCity was created by two brothers who wanted to organise an alternative city experience for friends. HiddenCity now has trails operating in London, Manchester and Brighton.
