Moriarty's Gameroom: The Hunt is Afoot! Scavenger Hunt Room
60 Min Scavenger Hunt Room Synopsis
Sherlock Holmes has just uncovered a devilishly sinister plot. Professor Moriarty is planning on releasing a deadly virus inside Parliament in London. Holmes has recently discovered that Moriarty also has an antidote to this virus. The trouble is, the antidote could be in a number of places and time is of the essence.
In order to cover the most ground as quickly as possible, Holmes enlists the aid of members of his League of Masters in Elementary Deduction to investigate some possible locations. This is where you come in, as part of The Great Escape Chicago experience.
You find yourself inside the Gameroom at one of Moriarty’s estates.
