Valencia Self-Guided Detective Murder Mystery Game

This one starts on the Plaça de la Verge in Valencia, a square hemmed in by the cathedral and its bell tower. From there the trail crosses the old town and passes the Museo Marqués de Dos Aguas before turning back. It is a self-guided walking tour built around a murder investigation rather than around a set of sights. The old centre of Valencia is compact and level, so the walking is undemanding and suits families with children, friends, couples and colleagues. Up to four people form a team and share one phone between them, while a larger group takes several tickets and plays in parallel. Setting out on your own is equally possible. There is no guide and no set departure, so the pace of the afternoon is yours. How to playThe setup in Valencia is four steps long.

Coded notes, photo assignments and the shifting statements of digital characters make up the evidence, and you decide what to believe. Around the cathedral square the testimony starts to contradict itself, and the list of names gets shorter with every puzzle solved. More than one team playing means a running score, which is what makes this workable for teambuilding as well as for a free afternoon. Pause when you want, continue later, and finish the case in Valencia at whatever hour suits you.
