The Murder at the Detroit Institute of Arts Scavenger Hunt

Can your team of sleuths catch a killer?

You didn’t expect an ordinary old museum tour, did you? Good, because you won’t get one here. Instead, you’ll be challenged to solve the murder of a Watson Adventures staffer who’s been found dead in the Detroit Institute of Arts.

It turns out that the dead man created a hunt for your group that is full of secret codes and an “emergency message.” We need your team to do the hunt and see if it provides clues about who wanted him killed and why. You’ll start to uncover the secrets of his treacherous double life—and possibly head off an international incident with far-reaching consequences.

Along the way, you’ll also uncover secrets about amazing works of art, where many a surprising detail turns out to be part of a cryptic code. No previous knowledge of art, or the museum, is required: you just need sharp eyes and good teamwork. The fate of the free world just may hinge on your group’s ability to work together.
