How Murder Mystery works

What are the rules of Murder Mystery?

After a dramatic introduction, your guests will work in teams to follow clues and solve the mystery. Either complete as individuals or per table, depending on the group size.

Who is Murder Mystery for?

Murder Mystery works best with groups of 20 or more. It’s a great way to mark a memorable evening for anyone who likes drama and twists. If you have a smaller group size and think your guests would be up for it, we can set the event up so that each guest is assigned a character, complete with detailed background story and secrets.

How long does Murder Mystery last?

The mystery unfolds over a leisurely dinner – two to three hours.

How do Murder Mystery events work?

At a Murder Mystery party, guests are invited to step into a world of intrigue and suspense. They are often given a specific theme or setting, such as a 1920s speakeasy or a Victorian manor, to create an immersive atmosphere.

Murder Mystery parties provide an exciting and interactive experience, combining elements of puzzle-solving, role-playing and socialising.

University of Edinburgh

With restrictions in place that curtailed our previous plans for the company’s 50th anniversary we were delighted to find a great alternative and a team well-equipped to deliver an event for such a significant milestone. The Maximillion team worked closely with us, making suggestions and sharing ideas to help make our virtual away day celebrations a real occasion. The feedback from the events was really positive and it was great to have a chance to get together in such a fun environment when all the teams have been working so hard over the past months.

Maximillion ran the Urban Adventure for our teams with the activity run in Edinburgh city centre and the feedback has been nothing but positive. The activity brought teams together from different offices and different business areas and was a great way for everyone to get to know each other in a fun and informal activity.

Nucleus Financial

Maximillion was great! They were responsive and accommodating and we would definitely use them again.

The InterGen Summer Event 2024 was an unforgettable day! This could not have happened if it was not for the brilliant team at Maximillion. Their attention to detail, organisation skills and fantastic hosting/MC’ing on the day of the event was brilliant. Massive thank you for making our team building event the highlight of 2024.

The Lego Serious play event was a great hit with all of our Scotframe participants. Such a great way to get everyone involved and really work as a team.

We held events running over two days. The Maximillion Gameshow which was fun and engaged all who attended the first evening event. During our away day we had Team Tops Trumps in the morning, again this was inclusive for all who were in attendance. Lastly during the afternoon of our away day we took part in Level-up which I have to say was great fun for all involved.

Resolis

Absolutely brilliant from start to finish. This is the second time using Maximillion and on both occasions they have made the event! So much fun and so engaging. The feedback from all who attended was this was a brilliant session. Huge thanks to all involved.
