Contact us if you want to set up a Scaventour™ Cryptic Murder Game, which can be done for up to 16 - 400 people. Scroll down to see different variations of the game, including one that can be played at your location.

An anonymous whistleblower provided clues that will allow your team to identify which of the suspects is the murderer, what the key evidence is that can convict that murderer, and where that evidence is located.

This Waikiki-based game is designed for team building with 4 person teams attempting to solve this mystery before time runs out.

The Scaventour™ Cryptic Murder Game takes your group and splits them into up to 100 teams of 4 people in order to determine the Killer’s identity (up to 400 people).

The game can be played any time of day (between 9 AM and 9 PM). The game play is 90 minutes, but it generally lasts 2 hours when you account for opening information briefing, and the scoring and prize awarding at the end. For larger groups, the game might take a little longer to complete.

The setup for the game is that Natasha Dudko (from "Duke's Revenge") has been murdered. Each team will be given a packet of puzzles, a map, a list of suspects, evidence, and evidence locations, an instruction sheet, prescribed route, and a scoresheet.

Throughout the 90 minute game, teams explore central Waikiki (generally from Beach Walk to Duke's Alley), walking around one mile in search of answers to their puzzles. Successfully solving a puzzle will give them a clue that will allow them to deduce which of the suspects is the killer. A correct answer will allow them to eliminate 1 or more of the 15 items from their suspectlist. Answering all of 14 puzzles correctly will result in the team correctly deducing the Murderer's identity, the evidence, and the location.

Teams will solve puzzles while engaging in tasks such as correlation, observation & discernment, compartmentalism, pattern recognition, spatial patterns, communication, and logic deduction (with a little bit of math). It will take the entire team’s efforts in order to be successful in winning the game.

Teams will be scored on their ability to answer the puzzles correctly and to deduce the Killer’s identity, the key evidence, and the evidence location. Puzzles have varying degrees of difficulty (rated based on previous player’s performance), with some puzzles quite simple and some very challenging.

The game can also be made accessible for people who are in wheelchairs or do not have the ability to walk the full breadth of the course.

The Cryptic Murder game is great for Corporate Team Building or perhaps an event for a conference in Waikiki.

Winners will get a coveted Scaventour poker chip.

$37 per person. The group will be split into teams of 3-5 people per maximum per team. Minimum 16 players.

Optionally, we can set up this game at your location. We have run the game at the Stadium Shopping Mall (where the Ice Palace is located) in Aiea, and have games for the Aulani Hotel and the Four Seasons. We can also run this game in any conference room, cafeteria, gymnasium, or even out on an open lawn, with our stand-alone game. That game has some optional features where the teams can be forced to collaborate with each other at various times during the game in order to earn bonuses.
