The Story

The Bumpemoff Theatre Company’s annual pantomime is always the hit of the season, but tensions have been mounting on set as Brenda Watson (Producer/Director/Dictator) has been driving the cast harder than the pumpkin carriage. Actors have been threatening to walk out and after a hidious dress rehearsal Watson is murdered on the stage. Which of the tempestuous thespians finally got to the end of their tether and took Bumpemoff too literally? Can you help Detective Logic to solve the puzzle?

How to Play

Our festive murder puzzle event is played from the comfort of home, with full instructions emailed out to you in advance of the event.  
Starting at 7pm, you will join Detective Logic, live and online via Zoom video conferencing.  Once online the Detective will give you a secret password with which to access all the clues and evidence he has gathered relating to the case.  The evidence will come in many different formats including audio and video clues, facts, photo evidence and puzzles.  With the clock ticking you will then have two hours  to consider the clues, sift the eveidence and solve the puzzles before applying your  logic skills to  discover who-dunnit and why.  
With instructions provided on how to submit your solution. At 9pm, Detective Logic will reveal Who-dunnit and Why. Everyone who correctly identifies who-dunnit and submitted their solution before the 9pm deadline, will be entered into the prize draw with a chance to win a £30 Amazon Voucher.
At approximately 10pm, you will receive a final email from Detective Logic, explaining what each piece of evidence revealed,  and the name of the winner of the £30 prize draw.
