What a murder mystery game does for a team

Many team-building events remain superficial. Everyone knows they’re meant to strengthen bonds, but no one feels like that’s actually happening. A murder mystery game works differently. Because colleagues take on roles and have to solve a mystery together, new interactions naturally emerge.

You discover that someone from another team is funnier than you thought. Or that someone who is usually quiet in meetings is suddenly sharp and alert in a role. Those kinds of observations stick with you, even after the game is over.

Planning a team outing

For a team outing, you’ll need to coordinate the practical details in advance: location (at the office, at an off-site venue, or at a restaurant), food (catering, takeout, or cooking yourselves), and the date and time. The game itself doesn’t require anything special—just that everyone can start at the same time.

Many teams choose a murder mystery dinner to wrap up a workday or follow up a meeting. Start at 5:00 PM with a drink, then the game begins and you eat as the story unfolds. Finished around 9:30 PM.
