Team building Colombo: walk and solve

Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Colombo leads you from the DS Senanayake Monument to Independence Square and Viharamahadevi Park. You investigate on foot using the free Loquiz app, with the surroundings providing the setting for your fictional case. The walk gives colleagues places to notice while the mystery offers a concrete shared problem. Compare what different teammates make of the information before agreeing on an answer. Another interpretation may add something new to consider, keeping the discussion open to everyone’s ideas. This makes the activity something your small group actively shares as you explore and investigate together rather than leaving every decision to the phone holder during play.

Use one phone for each team of at most 4 players; all teams can start at the same time and compare their scores. Decide the groups before beginning, perhaps mixing colleagues who do not often work alongside one another. The case provides a common topic immediately. Keep the screen accessible and hear more than one suggestion before choosing your response together. Comparing scores creates a point of discussion for the wider group afterwards, while sharing decisions within each team leaves room for everyone during play. The phone holder can investigate alongside the others, so following the mystery remains part of the whole small group’s experience throughout the walk.

Plan for 1.5 to 2 hours and €19.95 per team; larger groups can ask for a group quote on the website. The game is available daily, you can start whenever you like and your booking is valid for 12 months. Prepare the free Loquiz app on the team phones and settle who plays together before the case begins. Choose a starting moment that lets colleagues gather, then give the walk its own space in your plans. That leaves time to explore and discuss possible answers without rushing the investigation. Once everyone is ready, the mystery supplies a shared task, with scores to compare after the teams have played together during the outing.
