The Great Game, London

Our experience with the Treasure Hunt for Brighton was pretty poor. We were too late to buy posted version, so bought print at home... • The PDF wouldn’t print in portrait mode, even though set to this on the printer which meant that the font size was tiny • The second clue was wrong – the clue says the following: “Look in square C5 there are two streets running east to west, make your way to the northern one”. It was confusing to talk about ‘streets’ when that actual answer is Gloucester road! In C5 there are in fact three streets – Railway Street (the most northerly), Terminus Street and Trafalgar Street. We spent a good 15 – 20 minutes wandering around trying to work out what to do with this clue before we called Bryn who pointed me to the answers. By the end of this the kids (14 & 17) were hungry and fed up and didn’t want to continue. We persevered for another 30 mins or so, but didn’t recover! • I felt a bit cheated by the requirement to buy a package for 4 people, given that all we received was a single PDF which meant that we’d have been fine with paying for 2 people.

I did the Edinburgh Great Game recently and really enjoyed it! Took me to all the main sights of Edinburgh and was just the right length! Clues were great, not too simple but not impossible and great pub at the end. Highly recommend!
