About this title

Synopsis

ESCAPE FROM A WEB of PUZZLES, ILLUSIONS AND TRAPS

The greatest escapologist of all time, Harry Houdini left audiences numbering tens of thousands astounded with his repertoire of stunts: escaping brutally heavy locks and chains while underwater; digging himself out after being buried alive; wriggling free from a straitjacket while suspended from a crane; each escapade a little more dangerous than the last.

The legend of Houdini has inspired this Puzzle Vault, a collection of more than 100 difficult enigmas and conundrums designed to test the depths of your intellect. Can you unlock the web of puzzles and escape from the traps set within before it’s too late?
