Frequently asked questions
What is the headless bride story?
You play a detective investigating the murder of Victoria, a young bride found dead in her wedding dress just hours before her ceremony. The case has stalled and the killer seems to have vanished, so you follow the trail through Pitești, solving a puzzle at each place to work out who did it.
Where does the quest start and finish?
It starts at Str. Târgul din Vale 20 and finishes at Mânăstirea Trivale, so it does not end where it began. On the way you pass Biserica Mavrodolu, Secția de Poliție nr. 1, Parcul Central, Curtea de Apel, Expo Parc and Poarta Eroilor, among other stops.
How long does it take?
Most players take around six hours, walking and puzzles included, over about 16.4 km. You do not have to do it in one go: you can pause and continue later, which makes it easy to split the route across two outings.
Can we play as a group?
Yes. One ticket covers the whole group playing together, which suits friends, couples or colleagues. There is no group to join and no guide, so you play at your own pace on your phone.
Do we need to book a time?
No. You can start any time that suits you, with no fixed slot and no guide to meet. If you need a break, pause the game and pick up the investigation later from where you stopped.
What is Murder in Pitești: The Headless Bride about?
A bride named Victoria is murdered shortly before her wedding. You take on the investigation, following clues through Pitești to find the person responsible.
Is this a murder-mystery dinner or an escape room?
No. You investigate outdoors through real city locations with app-guided evidence and puzzles. It is not a hosted dinner or a locked indoor room.
What do Duo and Fellowship include?
Duo gives access on 2 devices. Fellowship gives access on up to 5 devices, so each included detective can follow the case on their own phone.
