Objective:<\/strong>
Find the Clues and Solve the \u201cMurder\u201d

Items needed:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. A List of Places: Hall, Lounge, Dining Room, Kitchen, Ballroom, Conservatory, Billiard
    Room, Library, Study<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. A List of Weapons: Knife, Candlestick, Revolver, Rope, Lead Pipe, Wrench<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. A List of Suspects: Colonel Mustard, Professor Plum, Mr. Green, Mrs. Peacock, Mrs.
    Scarlet, Mrs. White\n
      \n
    1. NOTE: These are the Places, Weapons, and Suspects from the Clue board game, you\u2019re
      welcome to make your own list, or style it your own way.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Print out a list of these possible Places, Weapons, and Suspects. For an examples, take a
      look at the old Clue board game.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3.  Decide, secretly, how the murder happened. Ex. \u201cIt was Colonel Mustard in the Dining
      Room with the Candlestick.\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Make clues to indicate where, who, and what happened or didn\u2019t happen. Ex. \u201cIt was not
      Mrs. Peacock or in the Hall.\u201d \u2013 \u201cIt was Colonel Mustard.\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. Hide these clues around your church, or activity area.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    6. Make a list of hints or puzzles to solve in order to find these clues. Ex. \u201cClue #1 is
      hidden in the coldest place inside the church.\u201d (Church icebox)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    7. NOTE: Make a master copy of the answer to your hints and puzzles, so that you can help
      struggling teams of teens.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      How to Play:<\/strong>
      Pre-game is the most of the work. Decide how the murder happened, hide all the clues that tell
      what did or didn\u2019t happen, and make a list of hints to help the teens find the clues. Have a
      master list with your or a Youth Worker to give additional help to teams when needed. Decide
      ahead of time how many teams you\u2019ll have.

      The Rules are simple:<\/strong>
      1. Find the Clues (And leave them where you find them)
      2. Solve the Murder (You only get 3 guesses)
      The first team to find out the correct Suspect, Weapon, and Place will win.
