Murder mystery in Palander House Museum

When

2018-2019

Where

Real-life murder mystery tour in Palander house museum, Hämeenlinna. The game has had so far two chapters and the third is released in the fall of 2020.  The game was done as a commission work for the Hämeenlinna city museum.

What

Hämeenlinna city museum reached out to us in 2018 with an idea of a murder mystery tour in their house museum. The players enter into the museum in 2-8 person groups to solve a murder, that has taken place inside the house. While interrogating the suspects the players make their way through each room and eventually tell their deduction to an actor in the last room.
The game includes 5 characters, who are played by the museum staff. The game is currently only in Finnish.
