CASE #02 / YOUR MISSION
Your city. Your suspects.
Your case to crack.
- Real streets
- Fictional crime
- App-guided play
CONFIDENTIAL / CASE BRIEFING
The story starts here.
What started as a romantic speed-dating night turned into a murder mystery.
Just as introductions begin, a chilling scream tears through the crowd, one of the guests has been murdered, and the killer has fled into the city.
Before panic can take hold, Agent X steps forward. This was no random attack. Every participant is now part of a deadly puzzle, and the only way to survive is to solve it.
Was it the charming Yoga instructor who vanished right after the scream? The wedding singer seen arguing with the victim? Or someone else hiding their true identity among the dating profiles?
🔎 Follow clues across the city, interrogate suspects in real locations, and track the killer's movements before they disappear for good.
Bring your sharpest instincts—and your pen and paper. In 90 minutes, the trail will go cold.
Love was the reason you came. Justice is why you stay.
Is this for you?
Who it's for
Here a speed-dating night gone wrong becomes a 2 km walk through Waco, following Agent X's leads and weighing suspects like a vanished yoga instructor and an arguing wedding singer for around 90 minutes. Couples on a date night, double dates and friends who like cracking a case together will enjoy it. Anyone wanting a seated murder mystery dinner with live actors should choose something else.

Frequently asked questions
Is this a murder mystery dinner in Waco?
No meal is included. It is a self-guided murder mystery walk played on your phone: the app leads you from place to place in Waco, tells the story and sets puzzles in what is in front of you. It takes around 90 minutes over about 2 km.
Is it a good date night idea in Waco?
The story itself begins at a romantic speed-dating night, so it suits couples well. You start whenever you like, with no guide or other group, and solve the case side by side. One ticket covers your whole group up to the number of devices listed, so a double date works too.
What kind of murder mystery game is this?
A guest is murdered at a speed-dating event and the killer flees into the city. Agent X brings you in to solve it. You walk between places, hear the story of each one and crack puzzles set in your surroundings while you work out which suspect did it.
Do we need to book a time, and can we take a break?
There is no time slot to book. You can start any time that suits you, and you can pause the game and continue later, which makes it easy to stop for food or drinks partway through the roughly 90-minute route.
Is it outdoors, and what if it rains?
It is a walk of about 2 km through the streets of Waco, so most of it happens outside. Dress for the weather, and if rain sets in you can pause the game and pick it up again later.
What is this Waco murder mystery?
It is a fictional date-night investigation in Downtown. Follow app-guided clues outdoors with your private group.
Why choose this Downtown route?
Choose a private outdoor date-night mystery in Waco as a flexible alternative to an escape room or theatre event. The individual page owns the exact case; use the city page to compare local murder-mystery options.
Is this a murder-mystery dinner or escape room?
No. It is a private outdoor detective game played through real locations, with no hosted dinner, actor performance or locked indoor room.
