About this Event

Step into the historic streets of Oxford as the sole heir of the legendary watchmaker, Alfred Du Pont. Proudly adorning your wrist is his magnum opus, a mesmerizing timepiece etched with mysterious symbols and bearing an enigmatic, uneven tick.

But as you ponder its secrets amidst the bustling crowd, disaster strikes—a cunning thief seizes the moment and your treasured inheritance vanishes. Embark on a thrilling chase through the cobblestone lanes of Oxford, deciphering cryptic clues and unraveling the legacy of the greatest watchmaker in history.

Will you reclaim Du Pont's masterwork before time runs out?

The route you’re going to follow in the city is sprinkled with unique places, fun clues and challenges, and incredible stories.
