What is a murder mystery team building activity?

A murder mystery is a social team building activity that gives colleagues an entertaining problem to solve together. Players interact as characters, share discoveries and work through the investigation to determine who committed the fictional murder.

Google Review

★★★★★ Bought this game for my wife's 30th surprise birthday party. She had no idea what was happening but loved every second of the game. It was perfect timing since her birthday is just before Halloween. We did it up big. Everyone dressed their parts. There was one group who knew the killer in the second round but wasn't certain. Everyone kept walking around stealing info from other teams. You may not want to allow phones, though it was fun watching everyone try to be slick with hiding the fact that they were taking pictures. We can't wait to try it again with our customers.

Customer Testimonial

The games are great, I ordered both a box and an online version. Our host Robyn was fantastic and kept a bunch of 16 years olds entertained for 3 hours (best money I have ever spent LOL) and everything ran smoothly. I think having a host was the key. Bronwyn Kennedy

How many people do I need for a murder mystery team building event?

Boxed games are for 9 to 60 or 61 to 120 people.

Downloadable games are for 4 to 6, 7 to 10, 9 to 15, 16 to 30, 31 to 60 and 61 to 120 people.

How long does a murder mystery party take?

A typical team building murder mystery party lasts between 2 and 3 hours, depending on the game format, number of players, and how quickly guests engage with the mystery. Smaller groups often finish closer to 2 hours, while larger groups may take up to 3 hours as more players interact and share clues.

Do staff have to act?

Absolutely not! No acting experience is required. Players can participate at their own comfort level. The murder mystery places participants in groups and this is even better. The more gregarious players can take the spotlight while the more reserved players can share clues or sleuth away in the background.

Can we use our own venue?

Because murder mysteries involve playing games and your guests doing lots of fun and silly things, they need a quiet venue with lots of space.

You can hold a murder mystery at home or in a function venue. Try any venue which:

  • Is completely private i.e.: not a restaurant or public spaces.
  • Is very quiet i.e. no bands, piped music or DJ's next door.
  • Has lots of room to move around. Imagine all your guests standing in a circle.
  • You need one central area big enough for all guests at one time.
Should we hire a professional murder mystery presenter?

A professional host brings experience, structure, and energy to your event. They help get all guests involved, guide the game, and ensure everything runs smoothly so you can relax and enjoy the party.

However it could be a really fun aspect of your team building event that one of your staff runs it.

Can remote staff join?

Absolutely! You can either host a fully online murder mystery or have a hybrid approach where some staff are in the room and some are remote.

Are murder mystery parties good for team building in Utrecht?

Yes, they encourage communication, problem-solving, and teamwork, making them ideal for corporate events and team-building activities. They can be played at the office or in any venue of your choice.
