Virtual murder mystery team building activities for remote & hybrid teams

Our virtual murder mystery games are easy to play. No matter if you’re completely remote or in-person! All you need is your smart device, Zoom, and our Mobile Adventures app. Teams will be briefed by one of our expert Remote Hosts before separating into teams of 4-6.

You’ll have 1 hour and 30 minutes to solve the case as a team. Our virtual murder mystery games give teams plenty of opportunities to put their strategic skills to the test.

Our virtual murder mystery activities are made for any group size. Our team building activities are designed to encourage team bonding for teams of any size. Perfect for a murder mystery Zoom party! Whether your group is made up of 5, 50 or 5,000 people we’ve got you covered!

A virtual murder mystery activity is an engaging way to connect teams. You and your employees will be prompted to solve a murder and work together. Follow the sequence of events and unlock clues. Using your own smartphones and Zoom, you’ll be briefed by one of our expert Remote Hosts. You’ll then be divided into teams and work together in breakout rooms to crack the case.

It’s all about looking at the details! Solving the mystery and finding the killer is the aim of the game. All of our online murder mystery activities prompt teams to put their best deduction skills to the test. Encouraging communication and uniting teams.

Teams will be briefed by one of our Remote Hosts then break off into smaller groups (and breakout rooms) to ensure maximum engagement. Our expert hosts will be on standby throughout the virtual murder mystery activity to support teams, encourage communication and provide a fun wrap-up (via video link) at the end of the activity.

Yes! All of our virtual activities have been created with social interaction as a priority. Each challenge will encourage teams to spark conversation, work together, have lots of fun and get social - all virtually and from the safety and comfort of home. Using breakout room functionality which splits groups into small teams, we encourage participants to get social and collaborate in manageable-sized groups. We’ve developed our technology to encourage teams to pick a ‘Captain’ or ‘Player’ role prompting them to communicate and agree on a team strategy. Once the game has been loaded, each challenge and task has been designed thoughtfully to encourage each individual to play a role and take part.

Our murder mystery activities are designed to last 1 hour, plus a 15-minute briefing and 15-minute wrap-up — 90 minutes in total.

This offers teams the best murder mystery experience. You’ll have plenty of time to immerse yourselves in the story and work together to solve clues and tasks — you’ll want to make every minute count in this whodunit!

If you’re looking for a shorter session, the volume of content can be reduced to accommodate.

Our virtual murder mystery team activities can be played on your smartphone (iOS or Android) or your tablet.

We recommend 4-6 people per team. This gives everyone on your team the chance to shine during the murder mystery event. Solving challenges as a team is essential, keeping groups to this size is a key part of increasing team engagement.

We build team morale remotely through fun challenges and the expertise of our Remote Hosts. While our virtual murder mysteries offer a self-managed option, our Remote Hosts provide an additional source of entertainment throughout an online murder mystery and are on standby for support. Our engaging challenges and tasks thrive on collaboration, creating a positive and exciting experience for teams.
