Step back in time to 300 CE and explore the ancient city of Colchester with this immersive walking tour and escape game. Discover the remnants of Colchester’s Roman wall and gates, marvel at its art, temples, and culture, and stroll through the city’s scenic back lanes and famous Castle Park

This experience offers a fascinating glimpse into Roman Britain, blending history with an interactive mystery.

In this adventure, you are Antonius, a Roman diplomat visiting the city of Camulodunum (Colchester) at the request of the local governor, Marcus. While Marcus is eager to show off the city’s fortifications and cultural landmarks, he has a more urgent matter to address—a plot to assassinate him. 


The clues to this conspiracy are hidden across the city, and it's up to you to uncover the mystery before time runs out. Perfect for history lovers, adventurers, and puzzle enthusiasts, this self-guided tour combines historical exploration with thrilling intrigue.

*The end of the game is in a park that closes at dusk.*
