CONFIDENTIAL / CASE BRIEFING
The story starts here.
You know the old saying, “The boyfriend did it”? On an ill-fated night, love goes terribly wrong for Bella Wanderlust and Walter Bridges.
Bella, a famous travel blogger, was found dead during a ghost tour led by the theatrical Percy Shadows. Now, it’s up to you to uncover the truth.
Was it Walter, the obsessed boyfriend? Percy, the ghost tour guide with a flair for the dramatic? Or is someone else hiding in the shadows?
🔎 Gather clues, interrogate suspects, and expose the real murderer before they strike again. Make sure to have your pen and paper ready to jot down all the crucial evidence.
Is this for you?
Who it's for
This Lambertville case takes about 2 km and around 90 minutes as you work out who killed travel blogger Bella Wanderlust on a ghost tour, questioning suspects like boyfriend Walter and showy guide Percy Shadows. Friends who prefer investigating outdoors to a murder mystery dinner will enjoy it, as will teens who like a whodunit. Anyone wanting a live host or an evening indoors should pick something else.

Frequently asked questions
Is there a murder mystery I can play near me in Lambertville?
Yes. This is an outdoor murder mystery you play on your phone as you walk around Lambertville. You gather clues and question suspects to work out who killed travel blogger Bella Wanderlust, found dead during a ghost tour. Start whenever suits you, with no guide and no set group.
How long does it take and how far will we walk?
Plan on around 90 minutes, covering about 2 km on foot. You can pause the game and pick it up later, so a coffee break or a stop for dinner along the way does not cost you any progress in the investigation.
Can we play as a group, and do we need to book a time?
Yes, you can play together: one ticket covers your whole group, and you follow the case on your phones. There is no time slot to book. Start whenever you like, which makes it easy to fit around a date night, a birthday or a visit.
Is it suitable for kids?
It works best for older children and teens who enjoy puzzles and detective stories. The plot centres on a murder, a suspicious boyfriend and a theatrical ghost tour guide, so younger children may find the theme too dark or the clues hard to follow.
What happens if it rains?
The game is played outdoors on the streets, so dress for the weather. Because there is no booked slot and you can pause and continue later, you can wait for a dry spell or split the walk across two outings.
