Imagine running through the streets of Workington, your smartphone buzzing, an encrypted message popping up – and the world is in your hands. Sounds like an action movie? But it’s not. It’s the Outdoor Escape Game Workington by myCityHunt – an interactive adventure that throws you and your team right into the action. Forget stuffy rooms and artificial light. Here, the entire city is your playground! From the historic walls of Workington Hall to the alleys around St John's Church – Workington becomes the backdrop for an exciting mission you won’t soon forget. Are you ready to crack codes, dodge drones, and save the world? Then read on – because here you’ll find out everything you need to know.
Wondering how an Outdoor Escape Room in Workington can work at all? It’s simple: All you need is your smartphone and the free myCityHunt App. The player who booked the tickets through our website uploads them to their wallet in the app and configures the tour – number of players, number of teams, desired tour, and language. Then, a lobby QR code appears on their display.
All other participants scan this QR code with their smartphones to join the lobby. Each player then selects a team and joins it. And now it gets really exciting: Each player chooses their own role – for example, Codebreaker, Foreign Spy, or IT Expert. During the game, you receive challenges perfectly tailored to your role. Then everyone starts the tour together – and the adventure begins!
You need no local knowledge of Workington to play the Outdoor Escape Game. The app navigates you safely through the city – whether you’re here for the first time or have lived in Workington your whole life.
The principle is simple but ingenious: The app provides you with missions, clues, videos, and interactive tasks on the go. You move through the real city while simultaneously immersing yourself in a captivating digital story. It’s like an Escape Room – only outside, in the fresh air, with the freedom of an open game world.
Forget everything you know about classic city tours or ordinary scavenger hunts. The Outdoor Escape Game in Workington is a story-based experience that draws you into a completely independent, cinematic plot. The tour is deliberately unrelated to the city’s sights or history – and that’s what makes it so special! Because while you pass impressive places like the Our Lady and St Michael's Church or the Carnegie Theatre and Arts Centre, you experience these places in a completely new, exciting context. The real world merges with the digital story – and suddenly, an inconspicuous street corner becomes a secret meeting point with an informant.
What exactly awaits you? An explosive mix of:
Each task takes you and your team deeper into the story. And the best part: Since the story works independently of the sights, you can fully concentrate on the mission – without distraction from historical facts or dates. This is about action, teamwork, and adrenaline.
The situation is serious. Very serious. A megalomaniac cyber terrorist, along with a criminal hacker network, has hacked into the NATO mainframe and gained control over nuclear missiles. He threatens to plunge the world into chaos – and no one seems able to stop him. No one, except you and your team.
As members of a secret special unit, you are activated to stop the madman. Your mission takes you through the streets of Workington, past the imposing Church of St Michael and the remnants of Castle Magis. But you’re not here for sightseeing – you’re here to save the world.
Along the way, you meet virtual contacts who provide you with crucial information. You are pursued by enemy drones, have to decipher secret codes, and intercept enemy communications. You plan raids on enemy hideouts and explore Virtual Reality Rooms to find hidden clues. Every decision counts. Every second is precious. And in the end, the question is: Will you manage to avert the catastrophe?
Each player takes on an individual role – whether Codebreaker, Foreign Spy, or IT Expert. The challenges are tailored to your role, making every team member indispensable. True teamwork is not an empty promise here but an absolute necessity!
