Team building routes in Manchester, UK

Looking for team building ideas in Manchester, UK? Each route below is a story your team solves on foot, clue by clue, and the leaderboard at the end shows which team won.

The Manchester Pusher is the city's most reviewed route and the easy first choice. It starts at St John's Gardens and takes 67 minutes over 3.5 km, short enough for a first outing, and it plays in English, German and French for a mixed team. A competitive team can take Death in the Shadows, the murder mystery from Manchester Central Library. After work, the Ghost Hunt in Manchester sets off from the Alan Turing Statue and takes 90 minutes over 2.2 km.
