The Murder at the Adventure Aquarium Scavenger Hunt
No snorkel necessary—just good teamwork!
So you planned a tranquil group outing to your favorite aquarium? Sorry, bad luck! Turns out someone in your group—possibly on your own team—is a real Jekyll and Hyde, and they’re scheming to leave you swimming with the fishes.
Everyone in your group has been surreptitiously poisoned, and the clock is ticking. To save yourselves and get the antidote, you must play the villain’s game, identify the would-be killer, and prevent your own murder.
The killer has hidden their identity in a series of thorny puzzles, as part of an aquarium murder mystery scavenger hunt. You’ll be tasked with answering trivia questions, solving interlocking puzzles, deciphering coded messages, and meeting the conditions of tricky photo challenges around the aquarium.
Scavenger hunt highlights include…
- Penguin Park
- The toothsome Shark Realm and Shark Tunnel
- A trip into the rainforest at the roaring Piranha Falls
- The technicolor tropical fish of Pirates Passage
- The tsunami-sized 760,000-gallon Ocean Realm tank
All in all, this is a great setting for an unusual 90-minute murder mystery game. It’s a dramatically different setting for team building or group outings of any kind.
On the “Spy Chase” Kids Edition, suitable for age 7 and up, kids and adults work together to discover which team includes a spy. It’s a great activity for school field trips, where even the chaperones have fun.
The aquarium is located on the Camden Waterfront, near the Ben Franklin Bridge. Contact us for more information about our murder mystery team building games, and find more fun near Philly!
