Your many clues have been locked up to keep them away from prying eyes. Can you unlock the strongbox and acquire the plans in 60 minutes before you are discovered? Do you have what it takes to complete this mission?  \n\n\n\nThis is a great group activity! Wonderful for birthdays\, company activities\, or a club outing.
