Frequently asked questions
Is there a murder mystery game you can play in Mildura?
Yes. This self-guided murder mystery runs through Mildura's CBD on your phone. Bella Wanderlust, a famous travel blogger, is found dead during a ghost tour, and you gather clues and interrogate suspects, including her boyfriend Walter and the tour guide Percy Shadows, to work out who did it.
Is this like an escape room in Mildura?
It shares the puzzle solving and teamwork, but it happens outdoors rather than in a locked room. You walk the city centre at a time you choose, solving puzzles set in the places in front of you and building a case against the suspects on your own phones.
Where does it start and finish, and how long does it take?
The route is a loop of about 2.7 km that starts and ends at the Alfred Deakin Sculpture, passing the William (WB) Chaffey Statue along the way. Most players take around two hours, including walking and solving the puzzles.
Can we play as a group, and do we need to book a time?
Yes, one ticket covers the whole group playing together. There is no set time slot and no guide to meet, so you can start whenever suits you, and you can pause the game and pick it up again later.
Is it suitable for kids?
It suits older kids and teens who enjoy detective puzzles best. The story centres on a death and questioning suspects, and the walk takes around two hours, so it may be a stretch for very young children.
