About
There is panic in the library: the professor arrives in an hour and needs the book for a very important lecture, so players must decipher his notes and track it down without Google, smartphones or internet. Along the way they learn about UNESCO, the World Heritage it protects and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, though no prior knowledge is needed because every answer is in the room. The standard version is for players aged 16 and up, a school version works from 14, and the game is designed to sharpen communication, teamwork and out-of-the-box thinking. Information is available in Dutch and English.
The games
1 game to choose from
The Lost Book is a UNESCO library escape game in Centrum Emma, a short walk from Utrecht Centraal. Panic has broken out in the library, because a book needed for a crucial lecture is missing and the professor arrives in 60 minutes. Your team must decipher his notes and find the book without Google or a phone, picking up facts about UNESCO, World Heritage and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights on the way.

The experience
The atmosphere and the groups this venue has in mind.
Atmosphere
Playfully academic: a bookish whodunnit with a purpose, where cooperation, division of tasks and creativity matter more than prior UNESCO knowledge. The level is fairly high, and the standard version suits ages 16 and up, with a variant for schoolchildren from 14.
Who it suits
Book lovers, students, colleagues and school groups of three to five, with up to seven working if one or two take a back seat. Groups larger than eight do not get an optimal experience.
