2020 Tomb Raider Date Night



On March 7, 2020 approximately 30 couples gathered in the Bean Life Science Museum for Tomb Raider’s date night. The mission was simple enough: retrieve the jewel encrusted skull of Monte L. Bean for Madam Duvalt. After eating a delicious meal and being briefed on the dangers of the mission guests were ready to begin the mission. This particular group was quite brave and enthusiastic in the face of danger. Guests were asked to maneuver through the museum completing various riddles from our cast members, remaining wary of the shadow guards who would strike when thunder would sound throughout the museum. 






Guests made use of strategy and pure speed to evade the shadow guards’ cold grasp. In order to receive a map piece guests had to shoot the shadow guards in the nautical themed shooting gallery ran by the Ship Captain and her First Mate, overcome their fears as they went through the Mystic’s blind folded maze through some of the exotic animals from her past, and cautiously move through Cleopold’s laser course, among others challenges in the museum.


The last map piece is always the most elusive! Guests would have to really face their fears by facing the shadow guards themselves in order to truly succeed, even though it would be risky and dangerous. In the end, one couple was victorious over the rest, and Madam Duvalt finally had her prized skull at last.
