The Story

You are part of a team of super elite security specialists on a special mission: the home of VIP clients has been infiltrated and a bomb planted. It’s too dangerous to go in, so your team will have to work remotely to crack the hacker’s codes and defuse the bomb.

Eq​uipment You'll Need

If you’re playing with other people, results are best when you have a smart phone for entering the codes and a tablet or computer for video chatting with the other players. If you’re playing alone, all you need is your smart phone. And, of course, the package of materials.

How Long it Takes to Play

Most groups complete the game in 45-60 minutes, depending on how many hints they choose to use.

Logistic and Cost

Packs of materials are sent to you in the mail and are yours to keep. The cost is $29 for one pack, +$14 for every additional pack to a maximum of four. Free shipping and handling in Canada. Additional handling fee for shipping to the US (+$5) or internationally (+$7).

​How The Game Works

Each team receives a package of slightly different materials. (If you are working alone, you receive the full pack of materials.) Working together, you scrutinize the materials, look for patterns, and figure out the codes. You then enter these into an on-line platform to outwit the hacker and defuse the bomb. If you get stuck, don't worry: there are hints for every challenge.
