Highlights
Outing Highlights
Casino Heist — Crack the Safe
A narrative-driven puzzle run that centers on breaking into a casino safe: teams follow clues and unlock stages of the plan until, at the climax, they blow open the safe and trigger the final race to escape.
Meet the Crew — Jack Potts, Wheels and the Specialists
The experience populates Coventry with named contacts — Dan Rooney’s pre-filmed team on your phone, plus on-route characters such as Jack Potts (the man on the inside), Wheels (the getaway driver), and a roster of safe crackers and hackers who guide your progress.
Timed Finish — 15 Minutes to Escape
The finale is a timed sprint: once the safe is open you have a fixed 15-minute window to complete your escape and collect the loot, turning puzzle-solving into a pressure-filled race against the clock.
