The Murder at the Art Museum Scavenger Hunt

A curator has been murdered…

…and he left behind a trail of clues that reveal secrets embedded in works of art at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. As your team finds answers to tricky questions about the art, you begin to piece together the details of the museum’s planned purchase of a newly discovered painting by Leonardo da Vinci. The dead man knew too much, and now it’s up to you to learn what drove one of four suspects to commit murder. Can you figure out whodunit?

What kinds of groups have cracked this case? All kinds, from corporate groups looking for a team-building activity to social groups searching for an unusual game to bring people together. And you don’t need to know anything about art to win: you just need quick wits and good teamwork.

What are players saying about the MFA murder mystery game?

A 5-star review on Yelp: “This was incredibly fun! My boyfriend and I did the Murder Mystery in the Museum of Fine Art. We followed directions to different rooms in the museum and used clues to find a specific pieces of art. The answer was usually obvious in the art or in the description. No prior art history knowledge needed! Each team was staggered so we weren’t all rushing to the same room at the same time….This scavenger hunt was easy and fun and made me read about the art much more than I would have normally….I had a great time and will look this company up next time I am in Boston.”
