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.

Client Kudos

Like many other professional service providers, we are often metaphorically ‘spinning plates’ and ‘juggling’ competing priorities, so it was great for our team to try these challenges in real life. We discovered hidden talents and it reinforced that working as a team and providing a supportive learning environment are key to delivering an excellent result. Thank you to Maximillion for your support and encouragement during this fun event, as well as for your professionalism in pulling together a slick activity for 220 people.

Our guests were delighted with the day of Highland Games, the team of maximilion was fantastic. I will recommend them 100%.

Horizons – TPG Scotland

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.

Your team on the night for installation were on time, super efficient and gave clear guidance on usage of the games and when I called to say we’d finished early – returned quickly and dismantled with the same efficiency.

Natwest

I received emails from the participants saying how much they enjoyed the event. Our HR manager stated he would use Maximillion again. Many thanks for all your effort.

TAQA Britani Ltd

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.

Abertay Housing Association

Just a note to say thanks for all your help with the Yamaha event last week. It went very well, and the client was very happy. I know she was a bit worried just because of experiences at other venues around the world where things have not gone according to plan. So for us to arrive and see it all set and ready to roll, put her mind at rest.

Spectra

Just to say the event went brilliantly on Saturday. Had some really good feedback from people and everyone had a great time ???? Thanks so much for all your help!

Overall Maximillion were fantastic to work with, they were really flexible and happy to work within our event timings and budget. I had several planning calls with them in advance so felt safe in their hands.

We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to the Lake District. Jenny & Rhys are extremely easy to work with and made both our Wednesday evening boat cruise and Thursday team building events, evening meal and band fun and enjoyable for all who attended. We would definitely use them again.Thank you Maximillion.
