Escape game and adventure course: discover the troglodytic galleries of the Château de la Bourdaisière. Researchers from the Prince de Broglie’s agronomy team have created a new tomato variety capable of withstanding severe drought and producing substantial harvests. In teams, will you be able to find the seeds hidden in the galleries during the troubled period of the war? Unfortunately, the holder of the secret has passed away, and you have only the clues he left to find the famous seeds. You’ll have 1 hour to find your way around, find the code, get out, open the safe and win!
