I went away with work for two days this week - you'll be glad that's peripheral to the entry here - and was surprised when our evening meal had a murder mystery as entertainment and team building. Naturally, I soon ended up like a pig in muck. The session was much more like roleplaying than I've seen before in such events, with eight or so actors in character the whole evening.

Mainly between myself and one of the other team members we cracked the mystery, to the point the team running it thought that they'd left a script around for a bit. All I can say is never trust the quiet ones, they could be the triple murderer!

I also wholeheartedly recommend Murder One if you want to put this kind of event on; very professional, great character acting and interaction and good plot and props.
