Hellevoetsluis Self-Guided Detective Murder Mystery Game

The trail starts at Plein Fort Haerlem, the parade ground of the old naval fortress, and runs through the walled harbour town. In roughly two hours on foot you take in the Jan Blanken dry dock, the ramturret ship Buffel, the National Fire Brigade Museum, the coastal battery, the Antonius van Padua church, the water tower and the lightship Noord Hinder. It is a self-guided walking tour built around a murder investigation. The fortress town of Hellevoetsluis is small, flat and ringed by its own ramparts, which suits families with children as much as a group of colleagues or two people on a weekend away. A team is at most four people sharing one phone, and a larger group simply forms more teams. Nobody guides you and no departure time is set for you. How to playGetting under way in Hellevoetsluis is a matter of four steps.

Clues arrive as codes to break, photographs to take and interviews with digital characters whose accounts of the evening do not agree. Between Fort Haerlem and the lighthouse, every answer you work out cuts the list of suspects down. More than one team on the route turns it into a competition, which is why groups use it for teambuilding as well as a day out. Break for coffee by the old harbour, pick the trail up again, and close the case in Hellevoetsluis when it suits you.
