How it works

Your task is to play the game, follow the clues, find the art, answer amusing questions about what you find online, and suss out the name of the killer, the scene of the crime, and the weapon used. Think you’re up to the challenge?

Using video conferencing, you’ll join our Host in launching the game in our app, which works in any browser. Working on teams, you’ll follow links to art on museum websites, tackle tricky questions for points, and consult photo clues to narrow the list of possible suspects, weapons, and crime scenes. No previous knowledge of art is required. But you’ll be amazed at the art you discover—and with any luck, you’ll catch the culprit.
Frequently asked questions
  • Can people in different places be on the same team?

    Absolutely! Each team will get a unique code for the Watson Adventures app, so you and your teammates can all play along together. And with the video conferencing app the host can send your team into a “breakout room” where you can see, speak with, and collaborate with your teammates in private.

  • What does my group need to prepare for this experience?

    For the best experience, we recommend using a desktop computer for the video conferencing program. We take precautions to keep the game safe and secure, and stress that you should not share the link with anyone not on your team.

    You’ll also use our browser-based app to play the game, which we will recommend you use either on your desktop or on a phone or tablet, depending on the particular game. (We’ll tell you which is best in a pre-game email.) At the start of the game we will give you the web address for the app and a code to access the game.
