Escape and Evasion Spy Activity


Can teams operate behind the lines? Teams, guided by ex-military instructors will evade capture using all their luck and their experience. Can guests co-ordinate an effective search using motorised hunter forces? We will show them how. Guests are split into two groups, HUNTERS and RUNNERS, they learn what they can about the enemy – the roles reversed after lunch. HUNTERS – their task is to hunt down the RUNNERS. The HUNTERS have an HQ, maps, radios and a powerful CCTV system; Land Rover QRF (Quick Reaction Force) armed with Pulse Ranger infra-red guns; and Scouts, who patrol in off road buggies. All players have a turn in each role. RUNNERS - their task is to escape and evade the hunter force, and to carry out team challenges as they move around behind enemy lines! Guaranteed to get the pulse racing – this truly is an awesome game! The game is designed for 18-60 players and is an outdoor game which requires movement across country, so physical demand can be quite high when guests are on the run! Throughout the day free refreshments are provided along with an excellent finger food lunch. As an additional element, a helicopter can be used as an Airborne Reconnaissance unit, reporting movements on the ground to HQ!
