About

 

How it works? 


The Murder mystery is a new kind of quiz that is told in a story form. The right answers create a dark story that tells how did the murder happen.


The quiz has 18 challenging questions full of brain-teasing riddles and puzzles that measure both knowledge and logic.

 

Unlike a normal quiz, knowing the answers will take you only halfway. You will also need logical thinking to solve the murder case. 

 

 

The quiz is told like a story


When the quiz advances the right answers create a dark story that tells how the murder happened. The detectives must solve six key parts of the puzzle:


When did the murder happen?

Where did it happen?

Who was the victim?

Who was the killer?

What was the murder weapon?

And what were the motives?

 

Each part contains three questions that need to be solved to outline the murder story.



The players write down their answers on a paper sheet and get points from the right answers.


The mystery has different valued questions where players can take a risk and double (+2 /-1) or triple (+3 /-2) their points. But they will need to be careful because wrong answers can take their points away.


There are also three key questions in the quiz that players can get 4 extra points from.
