The New Jersey State Museum Scramble Scavenger Hunt
Uncover secrets of the Garden State
Explore the people, places, and prehistoric creatures of New Jersey on this whirlwind adventure of a scavenger hunt. Team up with colleagues, friends, or family and follow a trail of clues that lead to objects on display and answer tricky questions about them. Along the way, you’ll also need to get creative for some team photos and tackle a surprise challenge with the Hunt Host. Your quest will take you to every floor of the museum in 75 minutes, and you will come away with your mind filled with amazing sights and insights.
Your tour through the museum might include…
- A truly one-of-a-kind dinosaur discovered only in New Jersey
- The real-life inspiration behind a seashell-selling tongue twister
- Fine art from the likes of Lichtenstein, O’Keefe, Nevelson, and Warhol
- Flashbacks to an Ice Age that covered the entire state in massive glaciers
- Wicked weapons and dubious drugs from New Jersey’s Native Americans
- And much more!
No previous knowledge of history, about New Jersey or otherwise, is required. You just need sharp eyes, comfy shoes, and good teamwork.

The Murder Mystery Mayhem Scavenger Hunt
Beware: there’s a killer in your midst
Someone playing this game with you is a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde. His or her good side knows nothing about the evil side—and the evil side has challenged you to prevent your own murder. Everyone in your group has been poisoned, and the clock is ticking down on your time left to live. To reveal the killer’s identity, you’ll have to complete a series of photo challenges, solve interlocking puzzles, decipher coded text messages, and more. If you succeed, you get the antidote. If you fail…well, you know.
If you love escape-room games, you’ll love this murder mystery scavenger hunt. But even better, you won’t be locked in a room for an hour: this game can be played almost anywhere.
An in-person murder mystery for any location!
We have a variety of versions, depending on where you want to play. Such as…
- A city, town, or neighborhood
- A science or history museum
- A zoo or aquarium
- An office building
- A school or campus
