The Ministry of Peculiarities
Enjoy a mini-escape room experience!
The Ministry of Peculiarities, an extremely inefficient organization dedicated to puzzling phenomena, will be peddling some curious wares and offering sign-up bonuses for their investigation at Hope End. For those more prone to hasty and inadvisable decisions, the Ministry is interested in immediate invaluable (read: expendable) help for a secret department. @theministryofpeculiarities
