How will you behave when you're up against the wall?

The Switch is part theatre, part scavenger hunt and part brain game, all immersive and is coming to Tamworth next month.

Spokesman Ryan Rhys said the live, interactive game - which tours internationally - started from the moment people registered.

"There is that interactive theatre element where a narrative unfolds from the moment you book," he said.

"You start to receive information relevant to the storyline, and videos get sent to you that start to build the experience, prior to the time you even start to play the game."

The mission will start with a rendezvous with The Moderator, who will send players off to face puzzles and challenges spread across the city.

Mr Rhys said the Perth-based company had been "lucky enough to bring the show around to a number of major cities and even the smaller regional cities in Australia", as well as the UK, Singapore and New Zealand.

"Especially with the rise of puzzle-solving experiences and escape rooms and the like, something like this - which is very hands-on and very interactive - appeals to quite a large audience and a large demographic of people," he said.

Teams of two to six people can take part in the 90-minute game - they must be aged over 13 years and have a licensed driver among them.

They will need a car and a fully charged smartphone.
