Escape from the Territorial Prison! (Family-Friendly Game)


  • Fort Walla Walla Museum 755 Northeast Myra Road Walla Walla, WA, 99362 United States (map)

WANTED, DEAD OR ALIVE: Seasoned criminal Orvy Whipstitch Horvath has escaped Walla Walla’s territorial prison—known to keep company with lowlifes and horse-thieves. Gather up a search team and help the law track him down! If you succeed, you will be rewarded. Horvath took an escape route through Fort Walla Walla and left behind careless clues.

This two-day family-friendly event is an interactive puzzle through the Museum. The wanted poster might lead you to a newspaper clipping detailing Orvy’s escape, which might lead you to the horse Orvy stole, and onward. You’ll have to bring your wits and your observation skills to trace Orvy’s trail through the grounds—and ultimately, discover the criminal in his hiding spot!

This is a weekend-long event, so join us anytime on anytime from 10am-5pm on both Saturday and Sunday.

This event is made possible by support from Columbia REA.
