The Murder at the Museum
of Natural History
Scavenger Hunt

Change of plans: you’re hunting for a murderer

This isn’t your ordinary scavenger hunt. A Watson Adventures staffer has been murdered, and we need your help to catch his killer. The victim created a scavenger hunt at the museum, and the police need you to do the hunt and look for clues—and uncover the secrets of his dangerous double life. There’s more at stake than just bringing the killer to justice: your teamwork could prevent an international incident with catastrophic consequences. (No pressure or anything.)

While solving the crime, you’ll get a whirlwind tour of the National Museum of Natural History. You’ll gather evidence and answer tricky questions as you trek past colossal dinosaurs, mysterious creature of the deep, your evolutionary ancestors in Africa, mummies from ancient Egypt, gems and jewels, even cockroaches under your sink.

So, whodunit? Was it the lion? The vampire bat? The mummies? A homicidal Homo sapien? Anything could be a clue, and everyone and everything is a suspect.
