Among games for company dinners, Mystery Between Courses stands out because it is based on a real case: the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum theft, the biggest art theft ever committed. Works worth hundreds of millions disappeared without a trace and the case is still open.
To close the case successfully, teams will have to hand the following to the chief of police:
- • The coordinates sheet correctly filled in with all the details: longitude, latitude, culprit(s) and a short explanation of the thieves’ motive and actions.
- • The map marked with an "X" at the exact spot where the missing works are.
This mystery dinner for companies encourages cooperation and sharpens participants’ analytical skills, while offering a unique and exciting way to strengthen team dynamics. Are you ready for the greatest investigation of your life?
How the game works
Mystery Between Courses turns a corporate dinner into an immersive experience that fits perfectly into the timing of the service:
- • Opening with actors: at the start of the dinner, 4 actors in character will appear and present a video introducing the story and the art theft you will have to investigate.
- • Investigation envelopes: each team/table receives an envelope with the initial case information, the first enquiries and several challenges to start the investigation.
- • Clues at each change of course: during the changes of course, the actors will hand out new clues and evidence so teams can keep moving forward and test their theories.
- • Immersive technology: innovative challenges with Augmented Reality, 360º spaces and interactive games that make the experience even more immersive.
- • Final solution: at the end of the meal the answers are collected, we check which teams have completed the investigation correctly and a closing video reveals the solution to the case.
The Heist: a story that adapts to your event
The story can be customised: from the theft of a patent to the investigation of an art theft. Would you like to live an adventure based on the biggest robbery in history? Would you like to feel the adrenaline of being an FBI agent tracking down the most wanted criminals?
Welcome to "The Heist: Raid on the Central Bank", a game full of puzzles and mysteries that will test your wits and those of the people with you. Your goal is to uncover the thieves and recover the missing pieces. Throughout the day you will receive clues and leads; nothing is what it seems, and the challenges we set you today will push you beyond your limits.
This flexible format makes Mystery Between Courses one of the most versatile activities for company dinners: the same investigation mechanics work just as well at a Christmas dinner, an annual convention or a team lunch.
