The 5 most important roles in a Mystery Room

Do you want to be unbeatable in a Mystery Room? Then it is not only about being clever. It is about having the right roles on your team. When everyone plays the role they are best at, you solve the puzzles faster and have more fun along the way. Here are the five most important roles to have on your team.

The Detective

The Detective is curious, spots even the most hidden clues and reports them carefully to the Helicopter. No detail is too small.

The Helicopter

The Helicopter hovers above the team, keeps the overview and knows who is doing what. The Helicopter gathers information and is the team’s hub for sharing knowledge.

The Questioner

The Questioner has the courage to ask the silly questions that shed new light on a puzzle and get the team back on track. Often it is the unexpected question that cracks the code.

The Organiser

While the Helicopter keeps track of people, the Organiser keeps track of the objects. The Organiser knows exactly which puzzles are solved and which items are still in play. Order matters.

The Cheerleader

No progress is too small to celebrate. The Cheerleader keeps the team spirit high throughout the game and is always ready with a helping hand and a well deserved pat on the back.
