The mission: Your story in Brighton

Once, you were a fisherman. 
Maybe the best fisherman in Brighton, until the fish disappeared. At first you thought perhaps it was a spell of bad luck, but as the months went on, you feared they were gone forever. 
 
It’s been two years since the fish left, along with your fiancé Elena. But this morning you found a hastily scribbled parchment stuffed beneath your door. Something is terribly wrong. It had no signature, just meet me at our theatre. 
 
You must find out who wrote it, and why. 

Good to know before you play

  • Family friendly
  • Fun to do as a couple

What a fantastic game. The locations were close to each other so you stopped every 10mins or so....just short enough to feel like a leisurely stroll rather than a 2hr walking tour. Just the right mix amount of historic facts without becoming boredom.
