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.

A variety of choices, indoor and out
Team-building fun can be had almost anywhere in the Philadelphia suburbs on our scavenger hunts and trivia games. First and foremost, great teamwork will determine the winner—but you’ll also get to discover an interesting place or fascinating facts, and get to know your teammates better.
On some hunts, you’ll follow clues to answer tricky and humorous questions about what you find. On outdoor hunts, the games often include Team Photo Challenges. Sometimes you must use your wits to find or create unusual objects, as on a traditional scavenger hunt. In all games, you’ll meet with our Hunt Host to get set up at the start, then you’ll find him along the way for a surprise bonus challenge, and then join up once more at the finish line, where the Host will score the results and announce the winners.
