  • Fictional crime
  • App-guided play

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

Starting at Las Vegas Ballpark, this 2.3 km walk through Summerlin passes Regal Summerlin Luxury and The Lawn at Downtown Summerlin as you investigate a travel blogger's death. Couples on a date night, groups of friends and families with teens get around 90 minutes of doing the detective work themselves. Anyone hoping for live actors and a dinner table indoors should book a staged murder mystery evening instead.

What makes this quest special

Highlights

  • A travel blogger is dead and the trail through Summerlin, Las Vegas is still warm enough to follow.

  • Read the scene, then read the people, decipher hidden messages and piece the evidence together until the alibis stop agreeing.

  • Twelve stops across 2.3 km from S Pavilion Center Dr, past Downtown Summerlin, Las Vegas Ballpark, and City National Arena, on historic streets and in the corners most visitors walk straight past.

  • A date night that is also a killer group activity, played with your partner, a few friends, or alone if you trust yourself.

  • Just your phone, starting whenever you like, with nothing to collect and nobody waiting on you.

A little clarity before you go

Frequently asked questions

Is this a murder mystery scavenger hunt?
In effect, yes. Your phone leads you from place to place in Summerlin. At each stop you hear part of the story and solve a puzzle using what is in front of you. Along the way you gather clues and question suspects, including Walter the boyfriend and Percy the ghost tour guide.
How is it different from a Las Vegas murder mystery dinner or an escape room?
There are no actors and no fixed show time. Your group does the investigating outdoors on your own phones, walking about 2.3 km through Summerlin and solving puzzles at each stop. You start whenever you like and can pause and continue later, rather than sitting at a dinner or staying in one room.
Where does it start and how long does it take?
The game starts at Las Vegas Ballpark and also takes you to the Regal Summerlin Luxury cinema and The Lawn at Downtown Summerlin. Plan for around 90 minutes to walk the 2.3 km route and solve the case. You can pause at any point and pick up where you left off.
Is it suitable for kids?
It suits older kids and teens best. The story centres on a death during a ghost tour, and players weigh up suspects and motives, so it may not appeal to very young children. Teens who enjoy puzzles and detective stories tend to be a good fit.
Can we play as a group, and do we need to book a time?
Yes, one ticket covers your whole group, up to the number of devices stated, and everyone can play on their own phone. There is no time slot to book and no guide to meet, so you can start whenever suits you.
