About this event
The Case of the Missing Dagger - where Amazing Race meets Murder Mystery.
A cold case has gone unsolved — and your team is the city's last hope.
The Case of the Missing Dagger is a thrilling outdoor adventure where teams race against each other to crack a real murder mystery. Think Amazing Race energy meets crime scene investigation — competitive, immersive, and seriously fun.
Here's how it works:
Your adventure kicks off when Detective Sheerluck briefs your team on the case and sends you out into the field. Armed with a detective kit, a mobile app, and your wits, you'll race across the city uncovering evidence and piecing together the facts.
Five suspects. Five evidence zones. One killer on the loose.
Your team will need sharp problem-solving, keen observation, photographic analysis, and a little luck to crack the case before the competition does. Zones can be revisited, strategies can shift, and the leaderboard can flip at any moment.
When the dust settles, all teams reconvene at a venue of your choice — a bar, restaurant, or private space — for the big reveal with Detective Sheerluck, final results, photos, and prizes.
Play it your way. Three game options:
- The Briefing — Detective Sheerluck hosts the full experience, guiding your group from start to reveal
- Gone Rogue — A self-hosted DIY adventure your team runs independently, on your terms
- Full Investigation — The ultimate experience, with your host Detective Sheerluck and 5 real actors located around the city bringing each suspect to life for a fully immersive investigation

The city's full of suspects. Can your team find the killer first?
