tortoise hare 2In the details of each murder mystery, both online and in the purchased PDF booklet, it will tell you the distance in miles/kilometres and also give an idea how long it is likely to take to finish it (excluding refreshment stops). But it is NOT a race, just enjoy it at your own pace.

Are Whodunits Just For Families With Children?

Absolutely not! Anyone can have a go regardless of age… although they may be unsuitable for very young children to participate in. All you need is an appetite for fresh air and fun!

Are Whodunits A Seasonal Activity?

Absolutely not! All of them can be done on almost any day of the year; some have restrictions on 25th/26th December and 1st January. Whatever the time of year, just dress to suit the conditions. In autumn and winter it can be difficult to get motivated to be outside… but fresh air is always recommended for good health, and what better way to get you outside than something fun, exploring an area and discovering something new! Our driving Whodunits are particularly good if there’s the possibility of rain showers, just hide in the car or be driving to your next clues as the rain is passing through! We recommend taking a clear folder for your booklet when rain is likely.

As far as possible, detectives have tried to make sure that all murder mystery routes have been planned to have very few, if any, steps, and generally don’t have significant inclines. The details for each Whodunit will give you any information on any specific access restrictions or mobility requirements.

What If We Get Stuck On A Clue?

need helpWhodunit Central will supply the answer to up to three clues if you get stuck. Simply email us (to the email address stated in the Whodunit Booklet) your unique Whodunit ID and the clue number that you are stuck on, and we’ll reply with the answer. We do this because sometimes signs disappear or get vandalised… but we also like to help! However, you’re on your own for the Super Sleuth picture clues!!

But don’t worry if any data/email-accessibility issues mean that you can’t cross off a clue at the time, as you don’t need to solve one clue before solving any remaining clues.
