During the wider English Civil War, Colchester was besieged with an unwelcome Royalist army inside its walls. It was the longest siege in British history. The game follows a young Colchestrian living through it and takes you to the places where it happened.
What will we see in Colchester on this walk?
The route runs from St Mary's Church (Colchester Arts Centre) to the Battle of Headgate site, St John's Abbey Gate, St Botolph's Priory, Priory Street Car Park, East Street Bridge and the Old Siege House, the former East Gate, Wetzlar Garden, the Obelisk and the Red Lion Hotel.
Where does it start and finish, and how long does it take?
You start at St Mary's Church (Colchester Arts Centre) and finish at the Red Lion Hotel, so it is not a loop. The route is about 3.4 km, and most players take around two hours including walking and puzzles.

Is there a best time of day to start?
You can start any time and pause along the way, but the last part of the game might not be available after 4pm, so begin early enough to finish before then. Bring a fully charged phone or a power bank.
