“Follow the iconic team of misfits on the magical road and escape from Oz before the witch has her way,” explains Questo online. “The event is entirely based on the original The Wonderful Wizard of Oz novel by L. Frank Baum.”
The new adaptation of the children’s classic first published in 1900 will see teams of two to six players race the clock to tackle challenges, solve unique puzzles, and discover clues using an app.
