Take a deep dive into the history of the Tower of London and crack conundrums inspired by the incredible events that still haunt the Tower's walls.

The Tower of London is one of the world's most famous landmarks. With the iconic Yeomen Warders guarding the gates, Crown Jewels that remain securely within and ravens that flock to its walls, it holds a rich history of invasion, intrigue and murder that has captured imaginations for decades.

From the Norman Conquest to the Reformation and through the break with Rome; from the murder of a King to the execution of numerous queens; from exotic animals held captive, to Nazi spies in the 1940s, the Tower of London has seen a parade of pageantry, political violence and passionate revolution that is shocking and ultimately, fascinating.

Now it's time to use your smarts to take on brilliant brainteasers and incredible conundrums inspired by the Tower of London's greatest events with addictively fun challenges that will take you through the most secret and sacred recesses of this extraordinary London citadel.
