CASE #02 / YOUR MISSION
Your city. Your suspects.
Your case to crack.
- Real streets
- Fictional crime
- App-guided play
CONFIDENTIAL / CASE BRIEFING
The story starts here.
What started as a romantic speed-dating night turned into a murder mystery.
Just as introductions begin, a chilling scream tears through the crowd, one of the guests has been murdered, and the killer has fled into the city.
Before panic can take hold, Agent X steps forward. This was no random attack. Every participant is now part of a deadly puzzle, and the only way to survive is to solve it.
Was it the charming Yoga instructor who vanished right after the scream? The wedding singer seen arguing with the victim? Or someone else hiding their true identity among the dating profiles?
🔎 Follow clues across the city, interrogate suspects in real locations, and track the killer's movements before they disappear for good.
Bring your sharpest instincts—and your pen and paper. In 90 minutes, the trail will go cold.
Love was the reason you came. Justice is why you stay.
Is this for you?
Who it's for
This French Quarter edition turns a 2 km, roughly 90-minute walk into a whodunit: a speed-dating night ends in murder, and Agent X sends you through the streets to weigh suspects like the yoga instructor and the wedding singer. Couples, double dates and friends who enjoy solving clues together will get the most from it. If you want a seated dinner show with live actors, choose something else.

Frequently asked questions
Is there a murder mystery game you can play in New Orleans?
Yes. This is a self-guided murder mystery played on your phone in the French Quarter. A guest at a speed-dating night has been killed, and Agent X leads you through the streets to work out which suspect did it, such as the yoga instructor who vanished or the wedding singer seen arguing with the victim.
Can we do it as a murder mystery party with friends?
Yes. One ticket covers your whole group, so a few friends or two couples can play together on their phones and solve the case as a team. There is no host to book and nothing to set up, which makes it an easy party-style night out without hosting one yourself.

Do we need to book a time slot, and can we pause?
No time slot is needed. You start whenever suits you, with no group to join and no guide to meet. If you want to stop for dinner or a break, you can pause the game and pick up the investigation later from where you left off.
Is it indoors or outdoors?
It is an outdoor walk. The app leads you from place to place through the French Quarter and sets puzzles in what is in front of you, so dress for the weather. If rain arrives, you can pause and continue once it clears.
