Times Square has sent us a press release announcing the opening of Ripley's Relic, a new escape adventure opening on Thursday, June 28th, 2018! There is a new “scientific discovery” waiting to be unearthed and unlocked at Ripley’s Believe It or Not! Times Square this summer. The world’s premier museum for strange, out-of-this-world artifacts announced today a new interactive, escape adventure opening in the crossroads of the world on Thursday morning, June 28th called Ripley’s Relic. Ripley’s Relic is a new interactive New York adventure that will transform visitors into explorers, working together to unlock a series of puzzles and decipher a strange assortment of scientific symbols that were recently discovered in Times Square. Featuring the latest in high tech components and top tier movie-quality set design, Ripley’s Relic will challenge adventurers to crack the code and unlock the powers of this new unexplained object. This new adventure will transport relic seekers on a quest to solve this Ripley riddle. With a live guide accompanying visitors, the setting for the experience is an emitting light coming from a newly discovered cavern that’s only reachable by a mysterious elevator and can only be opened by solving a symbol wheel puzzle. Once inside the cavern, the search is on to solve another series of clues to discover Ripley’s Relic. With the popularity of escape-themed puzzle attractions soaring from just a few dozen a few years to now more than several thousand worldwide, the market for those interactive experiences continues to grow.
