Tranform your offices into a 1930s themed escape room, with a murder mystery twist!
Mobile – Nationwide
The Sleuth Room takes the puzzle filled format of an escape room and adds a murder mystery twist, creating a dynamic escape room team building activity.
The teams are tasked with finding out who the victim, suspects and guilty party are by solving a series of puzzles and challenges, unlocking all the clues within 45 minutes. Each suspect has their own motive, and they are all interviewed via various relationships and intrigue. It’s up to the teams to find out as much information as posssible, and then put it together in the right order!
Once their time is up, the teams must then use all the information they have discovered to solve the crime as completely as possible. The teams are scored on their performance and if more than one team is taking part, the winners will be revealed at the end…
6 people are able to take part in this activity at oen given time, if there are more than 6 people taking part in the event, we can divide you into groups and run the activity more than once , and allow for slightly increased teams. You will definitely benefit if there is more than one team competing against each other, as this allows for a competitive feel, and gives room for feedback to both teams. Teams will play one after another, and we will need 15 minutes for the changeover between.
For two sessions/teams, we will need half a working day (this can be morning or afternoon), but for up to four sessions/teams, we will need a full working day. Per session, we will need approximately 30 minutes to set up beforehand, 60 minutes for gameplay. For multiple teams, we will then allow a 15 minute changeover, and then 30 minutes for feedback at the end, to see what each team could have done better! We will then just require 30 minutes after, to take down our equipment.

What are the benefits of this experience?
Full payment is required upon booking. If you then choose to cancel your event, your entitlement to a refund depends on the amount of notice you give us.
Our team for this activity is based within Oxfordshire, and are able to travel up to 100 miles from here.
No, this is an activity that is mobile, and comes to offices and venues for teams to enjoy! If you do need any help with venue finding, we have a venue finder in-house, which we means we are able to find somewhere suitable for you. Alternatively, you are more than welcome to find one yourselves!
We just ask that there is enough space for all of your group to walk around comfortably, and also enough for a small set up for the activity. There is only one host for this activity, so we don’t need a huge amount of room, just enough for us to set up and ensure your team are not in too small of a space.
This experience benefits your team by encouraging team building, communication and increased morale, all amongst a super fun time! The allocated time for feedback for teams at the end is key, as it allows any barriers they could have overcome, to be worked on for future.
Absolutely! Not only will this be a high-end way to send off your team in the new year, it will also be a great way to treate your team for the festive period!
