Operation Overlord: The Fate Of D-Day Is In Your Hands
In this exclusive collaboration with Royston Museum, Great Escapists are proud to launch Royston’s first Escape Room experience.
Operation Overlord is an immersive game experience with live actors, where you solve puzzles and clues to complete a mission – and learn more about the real-life history of the story. Expect the unexpected! This game is packed with mind bending puzzles which will take the entire team to solve, all driven home with high tension and high stakes as you must shelter from the Blitz when the sirens wail. Our goal is to give you the best 45-minute experience, driven with a deeply-rooted incredible story you will not forget for years to come. (Contains themes of mild threat, flashing lights and loud audios)
Your mission
It’s 1944 in Royston, Hertfordshire. Thousands of troops await the signal for the Normandy invasion, but a shadow of treachery hangs over the town. An American plane has crashed just after takeoff – was it an accident, or foul play? Your mission is to investigate suspected sabotage by Prisoners of War based at Royston Heath, uncover the truth behind the crash, and identify the real landing beaches before fake intelligence ruins the invasion. You’ll need to keep your head as the sirens wail and the Blitz rains down!
Operation Overlord is the perfect activity for families, friends, and colleagues looking for a high-stakes challenge, suitable for between 2 and 7 players.
2 Players: £19.50 per person – £39
