Visitors are invited to step into the role of elite spy detectives in an immersive, story-driven experience that challenges them to follow clues, solve puzzles, and uncover hidden messages before they fall into the wrong hands.

"Blending interactive storytelling with a thrilling spy theme, the experience transforms castle's, priories and ruins into a dynamic mission zone," English Heritage said.
