Sleuth is a superb activity that can be used to demonstrate the importance of working together to achieve results. The activity is designed for larger groups and focuses on a chilling murder mystery (with no actors and no role play) that each team has to work towards solving. A great activity for helping to develop a ‘one team’ philosophy - plus it’s guaranteed to be alot of fun!
What’s involved?
It’s time to grab the deer stalker and magnifying glass as each of the teams is out to solve a murder and represents a weekend guest at Tudor Grange - the country mansion of Lord and Lady Botley.
A murder has been discovered and guests are asked to put their sleuthing skills to the test to identify the following...
- the murderer
- the motive
- the weapon
- the location
In addition, teams have other information to gather and some unsolved cases to work on.
To make progress, teams need information from each other. They also realise that the murderer is one of the guests and that there was an accomplice - also a guest. So teams know that while they need to work with each other, two of the teams cannot be trusted.
Meanwhile the ‘murderer team’ and the ‘accomplice team’ try to throw other teams off the scent. Unfortunately for them, the shock of the murder has given them both a bout of amnesia - so first they have to find each other!
Sleuth is a popular activity that can be run as a standalone activity or as a facilitated event as part of a wider day’s programme. It can be used to highlight some key points about working together to achieve results and to demonstrate the importance of a one team approach.
