There is a shadow lurking in the museum’s library.After a vain chase, Bert begins to investigate and discovers that, from a book by alchemist Alessandro Cagliostro (Palermo, 1743 - San Leo, 1795), a page containing a secret formula has disappeared.

This is the plot of theescape game that the Dutch museum is about to launch and that all visitors will be able to play from July 7 to Sept. 2: In groups (of two to five people) it will be possible to become detectives in order to find the secret formula and bring it safely back to the Rijksmuseum Library.

It is a game, the museum explains in a note, designed to bring the Rijksmuseum to life in a new and unique way, open to everyone. It can be played every day from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. (the planned duration is one and a half hours, the game takes place all over the museum and is also open to children, ages six and up) and the cost is 17.77 euros per group (excluding ticket).
