What To Expect
Step into the vibrant streets of Melbourne as the lead detective in a chilling murder mystery. This outdoor escape game transforms the city into your personal crime scene, where every clue and hidden detail brings you closer to the truth.
Armed only with your phone, you’ll unlock puzzles, gather evidence, and follow a gripping storyline that leads you through Melbourne’s streets and landmarks. Along the way, you’ll examine alibis, interrogate suspects, and uncover the dramatic circumstances surrounding the suspicious death of a famous travel blogger. The suspects all have secrets—can you identify the guilty one before they strike again?
What makes this experience unique? Unlike escape rooms, this quest happens outdoors, combining interactive storytelling and puzzle-solving with real-world exploration of Melbourne.
Perfect for couples, families, groups of friends, or even solo detectives, this adventure blends teamwork, mystery, and discovery. The question is: do you have what it takes to solve the case?
