Currently on display at the National Videogame Arcade
A portable installation designed to mix physical movement with teamwork, communication and problem-solving.
One physical space, four big buttons and codes to be cracked! The game uses four custom-made buttons, designed so that the game can fit into any environment.
Players must use clues scattered around the room to uncover a sequence of button presses, and run around to bash the buttons in the right order.
You may have to flip through maps, pick apart circuit diagrams or rifle through a book of spy photos, but one thing’s for certain: the best codebreakers work as a team!
"Codex Bash was one of the most popular parts of our event. Simple to learn, difficult to master, and a brilliant experience for players and spectators alike.
Watching strangers bond through frantic dashing and button bashing was an amazing way of showing how great gaming is at bringing people together."
Nathan Buckley - National Science and Media Museum
