Lock Museum Adventure Game Lock Museum Adventure Game Lock Museum Adventure Game Lock Museum Adventure Game

You will use puzzles, riddles, and codes to open locks and antique safes to solve a mystery! You and your friends will be surrounded by thousands of antique locks, keys, and items related to lockmaking - the most in the United States and quite possibly the world. Some of the more unusual artifacts are a 4,000–year old Egyptian lock, a 7,000-pound cannonball safe, and a locking trunk from the Spanish Armada!

THE GAME: Find Pharaoh's Gold
In 1923, Abigail Atwater, an amateur archaeologist from Terryville, found the long lost tomb of an Egyptian Pharaoh.

In her excitement, she broke the strange wooden lock to the chamber and found a casket of enormous treasure.

She returned to her hometown and lived a life of leisure. But as the years went by, her conscience got the better of her.

As if in penance for plundering the tomb, she became a benefactor to the Lock Museum of America. She donated the 4,000-year old Egyptian wooden lock as a Museum centerpiece.

Just before she died, she hid the Pharaoh's gold coins in the Museum.

The treasure has yet to be discovered.

​Explore 5 rooms on the entire second floor of the Museum to look for clues to solve the mystery.

​Unlike most “escape” rooms, you will not be confined or locked into one room.

You will have an hour to achieve the goal!​

Players younger than 18 must be accompanied by a participating adult.

Your game reservation includes a free return visit to the museum during regular hours.
