THE GAME – A WHODUNIT!
There’s been a murder on the Mercantile Express. Five suspects have been apprehended, but police need your team to take over the investigation. You have been given the case file and 5 suitcases. Can you and your brainy team of sleuths deduce who the murderer might be?
The Mercantile Express Mystery is not an escape room but an adventure game that uses escape room-style game play, such as exploring, observing, making connections, puzzling, and communicating to complete the challenge.
