Murder Mysteries are the perfect team building choice.
If you’re looking to upskill your team, cement learning or just have a really fun afternoon (or day) murder mysteries are the perfect team building choice.
We can supply scripts to run “in-house” or come to you with our team to provide a live action experience.
Murder mystery games involve the team working together (or working against each other) to solve a puzzle. Which means it’s possible to achieve many learning objectives from a murder mystery.
Just for fun, or a real learning opportunity. We can help.
Whether it’s just for a bit of fun, or whether you want a real learning opportunity we can help you and your staff to create enjoyable and engaging team building event.
We can work with you to find out exactly what you want to achieve and can break down your murder mystery to explain exactly HOW you can achieve those specific objectives. We can even provide facilitator’s guides, or facilitators on request.
We can add in forensic experiences, as well as provide role play and full immersion experiences for your staff.
There is always the option to custom write something to order. We can create unique team building scenarios just for you and the team to enjoy!

What our customers say
Virtual Detective Event
Thanks, it was great! The team really enjoyed the event.
Detective Event
I thought I was going to dinner to celebrate my friend, who I had not seen in 19 yrs, turning 40. Imagine my surprise when she added this into the mix! Imagine my bigger surprise when I discovered that she, who lives in LA, had contacted Red Herring Games, run by an old school friend back here in the UK! It was only when I saw the back to the script did I realise who had organised everything. It was such fun. A very well-organised and written event, brilliantly delivered by Lydia who really engaged with a room full of people she had never met before. The story played out very well, and with only some getting "whodunnit". Everyone there got into the spirit and roles and with no one knowing who had ’dunnit’ until the very end. I highly recommend Red Herring Games to everyone, for every kind of event.
Multi Room Event
It was a pleasure organising this event alongside Red Herring Games. Joseph, Keiron, and Tippy were all an enormous help in the organisation, planning, and delivery of our evening. The actors were so accommodating to our needs and very flexible to work around an unpredictable evening. Thank you so much to everyone involved in our evening, all our guests were very pleased and we hope you had as much fun as we did.
Private Event
Fantastic evening! The food, hotel rooms, dining, service and without a doubt the acting/plot were fantastic. Please pass on my regards to everyone involved in making last night a success.
The Curious case of Mr Clarkson's murder
Viv and John came to host the murder mystery at our holiday cottage. They were lovely people and made our event a most memorable evening. There were 19 of us and each one of the family loved taking part in this interactive evening. It was so much fun. We highly recommend them and Red Herring events. Thanks guys! Kind regards Deborah and Joe.
Hollywood Murder Mystery
I would fully recommend this event as something different from the norm.
Our actor Calum was excellent and the organization from Joseph beforehand was spot on.
Everyone left asking when we would be holding the next event!
This a very interactive experience and all got into character well and fully enjoyed themselves… all 20 people.
Would definitely do again!
