Manchester - Castlefield & Canal

Manchester - Castlefield & Canal

Manchester's Rain-Making Machine - Can YOU Stop It?

Calling all super spies!

Your self-guided mission starts at the Museum of Science and Industry, taking you along scenic backstreets and soaking up the sights. You'll uncover the spot where Manchester began, see the oldest lock on the Rochdale canal, and learn many more incredible stories about the city.

But there's more at stake than a stroll around town...

The word on the street is that a villainous factory owner has created a rain-making machine over Manchester to increase production in his cotton mills. The local spy agency, SWARM, are busy bees tracking down the enemy and need you - our top agent - to help! Can you solve the sneaky clues and crack the code to switch off the device?

Come Rain Or Shine Can You Live And Let Dry?

The Rain-Making Machine Mystery

In the late 18th century, Manchester mill owner Titus Hardgrind needed a constant supply of rain to create the perfect conditions for spinning cotton. He ordered his engineers to create a rain-making machine to keep his mills turning... which was great for all the mill owners at the time but not so good for the people of Manchester! In recent times, this device has been kept in secret storage in the vaults of the Science and Industry Museum. However, jealous of the city's many charms, enemy agents from a rival city are now attempting to seize this machine and ensure that Manchester stays under a cloud for evermore. Local agents of SWARM (Save Wet And Rainy Manchester) are currently busy trying to track down these enemy agents. They need YOU, our top SUPER SPIES, to crack the code that will deactivate the machine and allow Manchester to keep basking under cloudless skies!

Are YOU ready to take on the mission and save Manchester from a never-ending downpour?
