Rowley’s Riddle – an escape-room style adventure that pits you against the clock as you race through the museum’s galleries, hunting for clues, solving puzzles and piecing together the final code to claim ultimate victory! *Extra ticket required – see below.
The Congo Adventure – have you got what it takes to unravel the layers of deception and misdirection to break into a mysterious wooden crate that has been delivered to the museum? The countdown is on!
Minecraft – jump into the world of Minecraft and explore Roman or Tudor Exeter, lovingly recreated by RAMM, block by digital block.
VR Experience – can you beat Beat Saber? Surrounded by a futuristic world, you slash the beats of adrenaline-pumping music as they fly towards you. Strap on a headset and jump in!
Games from Around the World – Sample a selection of games such as Dutch Sjoelbak, African mancala, Chinese mah-jong, Roman tabula and ancient Egyptian senet, and learn about their great migration through time and space.
The Riddle of RAMM – Help us to Beta-test a brand new digital ‘escape-room-styled’ game and help to save two archaeologists lost in the jungle by finding clues to their whereabouts hidden in the museum (your own mobile device is required to play this game).
