Invention of Murder

Big Game (2008)

Created in collaboration with Adam Parrish, Adam Simon & Jeff Sable

Invention of Murder uses the unsolved 1841 murder of Mary Rogers as the basis for a big game in lower Manhattan. Players begin in City Hall Park where they are given instructions that include a list of suspects, locations and weapons. They race to the real locations searching for clues. The first team to solve the mystery wins the key to the city.
