For the last 50 years, archeologists and museums have been searching for an as yet undiscovered Mayan city.
Dubbed Site Q by the academic fraternity, artefacts supposedly recovered from the site by local inhabitants have been available on the black market since around 1965. The location of the site, however, has remained a mystery. Until now”¦
Doug Oles, eminent archeologist and team leader of one of many archeological expeditions to the New World, has discovered a previously unknown city nestling in the hills of the heavily forrested region of the Yucatan peninsula.
Confident of his ability to prove that the site, which he has named as “Nova Corona”, is Site Q, Doug has called a preview dinner and invited celebrities and co-workers to an after dinner lecture in which he hopes to present not only his compelling evidence, but also a sensational new find.
However, at the pre-dinner drinks, tragedy strikes. Doug Oles is reported dead.
The question is, who killed him and why?

Never run a large group mystery before? Then don't
panic! Hosting a Large Group Murder Mystery is time consuming, but with
ample preparation and a good cast it is really quite simple and great
fun! In large group games it is impossible to give everyone a part,
instead the mystery involves “cast members” who are fully in the know and act out
the mystery, and the guests act as detectives trying to solve the murder.
Large group games come in several different formats, clue based, cast
based, multi-room, single room, or a mixture of them all. This particular
game requires 7-13 cast, and one large room. It also has an option of a series
of paper clues. Guests will also need paper and pens. This game works best as a
sit down event with 6-12 tables of guests who work as a team, but the game can be
adapted to suit most formats of events. The game contains two options.
Option 1: All clues are provided by cast members.
Option 2: Guests receive questions to ask the suspects (cast members) on paper,
and have to find out the answers to these questions from the cast. To find out more information about Character Based single room games click here Character based mystery games for large groups.
