LUNENBURG LOST (location-based adventure)

(unlike our other adventures which can be played from your living room, you must be able to travel to Lunenburg, NS (Canada) to play this adventure)

When John Creighton returned from Boston after being taken prisoner during the Sack of Lunenburg in 1782, he brought back a mysterious object he called the 'sacratium'. Fearful of its powers, he buried it so no one could find it. In 2022, a local historian stumbled on clues to its location but ran into trouble looking for it and she is now counting on your help before it falls into the wrong hands.

You will receive a package from the historian with handmade letters, maps, cards, notes and other items that you will need to combine to solve the mystery ... and there is a real treasure at the end for all players!

Based on historical figures, facts and locations, this adventure will get you walking around Lunenburg landmarks to decipher secret messages and solve puzzles. Knowledge of the history of Lunenburg is not necessary but an internet connection is required to solve some of the clues before you head for the town.

- Suitable for all ages but probably more interesting for those aged 12-15.

- The treasure is not hidden in Lunenburg: at the end of the adventure, the player emails the decrypted location to the historian who will mail the treasure to the player.
