Activity Overview
A tough team challenge to find an eight-digit combination, beat an alarm system and breakout! This lets teams work on a complex task with multiple sub-tasks to encourage collaboration, creativity, and problem solving under pressure. It will be a fun and memorable experience.

Activity Instructions
Points are obtained from solving 12 problems, each worth 100 points. The T-puzzle has to be solved, 800 points earned, and the 8-digit code figured out. By solving the various puzzles around the room teams can – with a little ingenuity – find the eight numbers. But first they must unravel the secret of the Japanese Puzzle Box that contains a key to one of the locked boxes, which in turn contains further clues. Teams can buy a ‘hints’ sheet if they want to be sure of getting some of the more difficult problems correct. Unfortunately, the hint sheet costs 200 points and is in code. Still, the decoder is on the walls of the room – if teams can recognize it!

Suggested Use
Ideally suited for any team to demonstrate some key teamwork lessons while having fun!
