The Murder Mystery in Brisbane is an interactive game/activity where you are guided by the Questo mobile app through a set of locations in Brisbane, while stepping in the shoes of the story's main character.

Designed to be enjoyed on foot, this experience is ideal for exploring the city on a romantic date, a family outing, or as a team-building activity. During the activity, you will also visit popular and hidden places in Brisbane while learning fun stories about them. This is a storytelling experience just as much as it is a role-playing scavenger hunt.
