Review:

ā€œReally interesting and there is a great diversity to the displays and themes covered. You definitely need a few hours to have even a quick walk through the whole museum. No trouble spending half a day or more there. Enough to look at for children to enjoy regardless of age. It is a very good overview of Australian culture, history, industry and the natural environment.ā€Jeremy Dawes

Each room has its own story line and a unique theme, which players must follow in order to gather clues. The clues are designed to be solved in a particular order and should ultimately lead to your escape. Each room requires different forms of pattern recognition, critical thinkingĀ  and systematic problem solving.
