Desiderius Erasmus has been murdered and it is up to you to find out who did it in this Murder Mystery Game!
As you tour different unusual locations on campus (including a mock court room and an art gallery) you will be able to talk to the suspects, search for evidence at the special locations, engage in a lecture by Erasmus expert prof. dr. Han van Ruler, to know about the suspects and victim, and witness live theater scenes filled with clues. Will you find out who killed Erasmus?
A Murder Mystery Game is an interactive theatre-experience in which you step into the role of the detective! In four rounds, you will be guided through some special lesser-known locations on campus in which you will be able to collect clues. Interact with actors, watch short performances, and in this case, uncover information about Desiderius Erasmus to determine the killer and win the game!
