Do battle with conquistadors! Move with mules and get along, little doggie! Baffle buffalo soldiers! Blow off steam aboard a steamboat! Get slick with oilmen! Find out about high times with pilots! Remember the Alamo! And discover other cool stuff that deserves exclamation points!
Along the way, you might also find…

- A human rainbow in action
- A little Lone Star who took a trip to the moon

You don’t need to be an expert on “the Story of Texas” to do well on this hunt or even to win. All you need is a sharp mind and comfy shoes.
An Escape the Museum Edition of the hunt is also available, in which the museum’s secrets are woven into a series of puzzles that you must solve to expose and stop a diabolical villain.

The Murder Mystery Mayhem at the History Museum Scavenger Hunt
Uh-oh! A killer lurks among you…
…and they’re about to interrupt an otherwise normal team-building outing to your favorite history museum. Someone in your group—possibly on your own team—is a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde, and they’re plotting to make you history.
Fortunately, this game gives you a fighting chance to prevent your own murder. Everyone in your group has been secretly poisoned, and the clock is ticking down on your time left to live. To save yourselves and get the antidote, all you have to do is complete various fun challenges and reveal the killer’s identity.
The killer has hidden their identity in a scavenger hunt at the history museum. Your team will solve a series of interlocking puzzles, decipher coded messages, and meet the conditions of creative, collaborative photo prompts.
Along the way, your team might…
- Act your age with age-old artifacts.
- Put your patriotism on display for all to see.
- Interrogate sculptures and statues for clues.
- Gape in wonderment at outdated technology.
- Tackle a trivia quiz about famous murder mysteries.
- Identify murderous movies and snippets of killer songs.
If your group loves escape-room games, they’ll love this history museum scavenger hunt. The game will also help you entertain a diverse group of people while boosting morale and teamwork. It’s perfect for a private party or a corporate team-building outing of any size.
A Kids Edition is also available, in which kids age 7 and up work with adults. It’s a great activity for a school field trip, birthday party, and more.
