Plan a Team Mystery See How It Works

Natural Interaction, Built Into the Story

No forced small talk. No spectators. Every character has a reason to connect.

Everyone Has a Role

Every participant receives a unique character with relationships, objectives, secrets, and information that other players need. Everyone enters the story with a purpose.

No One Sits on the Sidelines

There is no audience and no one waiting for a turn. Each person has clues to pursue, people to question, decisions to make, and reasons to stay involved.

Conversation Happens Naturally

Characters need information from one another, so people have an immediate reason to ask questions, compare stories, and connect beyond their usual workplace circles.

Collaboration Without the Exercise

Players exchange evidence, test theories, form alliances, and make decisions together without being told to network or complete a traditional team-building exercise.

No Acting Experience Required

No one needs to memorize lines, perform onstage, or be comfortable acting. Participants simply use their character information to make choices and join conversations.

Built for Different Personalities

Outgoing guests can command the room while quieter players investigate, observe, and contribute at their own pace. Both styles matter to the mystery.

Simple Logistics for Groups of 10 to 80

A flexible, fully guided experience that fits your people, schedule, and space.

2 to 3 Hours

We can shape the experience to fit a two-to-three-hour event window, including introductions, investigation, voting, and the final reveal.

10 to 80 Participants

We accommodate intimate teams and larger company gatherings while making sure every participant receives a role and a reason to engage.

Almost Any Venue

Host the mystery at your office, a restaurant, brewery, hotel, conference room, retreat property, or another space where your group can gather and talk.

Professionally Hosted

Your host explains the experience, guides every phase, keeps participants moving, answers questions, and leads the group through the final reveal.

Made for Teams of Every Kind

A shared mystery gives established teams and new groups an easy reason to connect.

Departments

Give people across a department a shared experience that encourages interaction outside their usual assignments, meetings, and routines.

Small Companies

Bring the whole company into one story where every employee has an individual role and no one gets lost in the crowd.

Project Teams

Help cross-functional coworkers connect through a common investigation that feels social, purposeful, and completely separate from the project plan.

Leadership Groups

Give leaders a playful setting for listening, questioning assumptions, exchanging information, and solving a problem together.

Company Retreats

Add a professionally hosted centerpiece to an off-site gathering, planning retreat, conference, or multi-day company event.

Holiday Outings

Give your holiday gathering an activity that includes everyone and creates more conversation than another dinner or reception.

How it works

We Bring the Mystery Almost Anywhere

If your group has room to gather, move, and talk, we can likely make the space work.

Your Office

Conference rooms, cafeterias, common areas, and flexible workplace spaces can become the setting for your team’s investigation.

Restaurants and Breweries

Combine your mystery with dinner, drinks, or a private gathering at a restaurant, brewery, or hospitality venue.

Hotels and Conference Spaces

Add an interactive evening to a conference, retreat, training week, company meeting, or out-of-town gathering.

Private Event Venues

Banquet rooms, community spaces, museums, clubhouses, and private event facilities can all become a crime scene for the evening.

Company Retreats

Bring the experience to a retreat house, rental property, lodge, or off-site destination where your team is already gathering.

Planning Your Corporate Event

Answers to the questions company organizers ask most often

How many employees can participate?

We can accommodate groups of 10 to 80 participants. We will help you choose the mystery and format that best fit your attendance, venue, and schedule.

Do participants need acting experience?

Not at all. Participants do not need to memorize lines, perform onstage, or have any role-playing experience. Guests can approach their characters with as much theatrical energy as they are comfortable bringing.

Is this appropriate for quieter employees?

Yes. Some players enjoy making dramatic accusations, while others prefer observing conversations, collecting information, and quietly assembling the evidence. Both approaches contribute to the investigation.

How long does a corporate mystery last?

Corporate mysteries can run between two and three hours, including introductions, investigation, voting, and the final reveal. We will confirm the runtime while planning your event.

Can the event be held during the workday?

Yes. Corporate events may be scheduled during the workday, in the evening, or as part of a larger company gathering, depending on availability and the needs of your team.

What kind of space do we need?

Your group needs enough room to gather, move around, and have smaller conversations. Offices, conference rooms, restaurants, breweries, hotels, retreat properties, and event spaces can all work. We can discuss your specific location during planning.

Can remote employees participate?

Our primary experiences are live, in-person events. “Almost anywhere” refers to the flexibility of the physical venue. Contact us with your team’s needs, and we can discuss whether another available format is appropriate.

Can you personalize the event for our company?

Depending on the event and timeline, we may be able to personalize selected details or incorporate company-specific touches. Tell us what you have in mind when requesting your event.

How far in advance should we book?

We recommend contacting us as early as possible, particularly for weekends, holiday parties, and popular company-event dates. Shorter-notice requests are still welcome whenever availability permits.
