Our team at TEA@UCF collaborates annually on the spring build project, creating immersive escape rooms that challenge and delight participants. The "Clairvoyant Caravan of Clues" was a standout creation, featuring four distinct fortune tellers' rooms, each with its own unique theme and set of puzzles.
Step right up, for one day only, to the enchanting realm of the "Claire Voyant's Caravan of Clues," guided by Claire Voyant, a renowned master of divination, alongside her trusted team of assistants: Destiny, Prophet Pat, and Forcenzo. Together, they present a captivating journey filled with challenging puzzles and elusive hidden objects. Solve these puzzles in each of their tents to unlock the secrets that await, discovering insights into your destiny and uncovering the profound mysteries within their mystical realm. It's not just a show, it's an interactive experience where you play a part in shaping your future. Remember, the more you solve, the more they will see into your future.
