CONFIDENTIAL / CASE BRIEFING
The story starts here.
"When I die I will be reborn in paradise, and all those I have killed will become my slaves."
Decades ago, the Zodiac Killer carved those words into history then vanished into the fog. The case went cold. The city moved on. Until last night.
A high-security police vault has been breached. The thief ignored the cash and the narcotics but he took only one thing: the original Zodiac evidence files. Now a copycat calling himself The Disciple has scattered the 1969 artifacts across the city and marked innocent citizens for "collection," determined to finish what his Master started.
You're on the task force. Twelve locations, each tied to a Zodiac sign. No set order, only your instincts. And beware: some of them are traps designed to waste your precious time.
🔎 Crack the Zodiac's infamous ciphers, recover the stolen artifacts, and save the victims before the clock runs out. The ink is fresh, the knife is sharp, and the city is screaming for answers.
Is this for you?
Who it's for
Across London's streets, a copycat called The Disciple has scattered the stolen 1969 Zodiac evidence, and you have around 90 minutes on your phone to follow the clues and solve the puzzles before he strikes, starting whenever you like. True-crime fans, friends and couples after a dark date night will enjoy it most. Anyone wanting a booked indoor escape room or a story without murder should pick something else.
What makes this quest special
Highlights
A copycat is finishing what the Zodiac started, and The Disciple is working his way through London.
Decode the real thing, cryptic notes, punched cards and symbol-filled messages built from the Zodiac's actual letters.
Twelve marked locations from Heath Street, past Hampstead Parish Church, Hampstead Museum, and New End Square, in no fixed order, and some of the pins are traps.
For true crime readers, played with your partner, your friends, or on your own if the ciphers are the draw.
Just your phone, start any time, and trust your gut more than the map.

Frequently asked questions
Is this game about the real Zodiac Killer?
It takes its hook from the real case: the Zodiac Killer's words and the 1969 evidence. The story itself is fiction. A copycat calling himself The Disciple steals the original evidence files from a police vault, scatters the artifacts across London and marks innocent citizens. Your job is to follow his trail and stop him.
How does this murder mystery phone game work?
You play on your phone while walking through real London streets. The app leads you from place to place, tells the story of each one as part of the case, and sets a puzzle you solve using what is in front of you. There is no live guide; you set the pace yourselves.
How long does it take?
Plan on around 90 minutes, depending on how quickly your group cracks the puzzles. You do not have to finish in one go: you can pause the game, take a break for food or drinks, and continue later from where you stopped.
Do we need to book a time slot, and can we play as a group?
No time slot is needed. Unlike indoor escape rooms with fixed bookings, you start whenever you like, today or any day. One ticket covers your whole group, up to the number of devices stated for the quest, so friends or couples can play together.
Is it played outdoors, and what if it rains?
Yes, the game takes place outdoors on the streets of London rather than in a room. If the weather turns, dress for it or pause the game and pick it up again later when it clears, since there is no session to lose.
