Step into the shoes of an ambitious young detective fresh out of training, as he tries to solve a murder in the heart of Royal London!
Photo: solveamystery.comThe Murder by Buckingham Palace is part-mystery game and part-self guided sightseeing tour - it's a great way of seeing the landmarks while enjoying an interactive exploration game.
Crack the clues, codes and riddles
Photo: solveamystery.comThe game will begin after you've picked up an envelope from a shop near Trafalgar Square. (There's no tour guide - everything you need is contained inside the envelope.)
You'll learn that a police officer has found a body lying by Duck Island Cottage in St. James's Park, and it's over to you to hunt for clues and uncover enough evidence to lock up the person responsible.
Photo: solveamystery.comAs you solve each riddle you'll be led from location to location, unravelling the mystery as you go. The game will send you down side streets and past famous London landmarks like Buckingham Palace. By the time you finish you will have seen Downing Street, Big Ben, the Houses of Parliament, the Ministry of Defence, Whitehall Gardens and Great Scotland Yard.

Once you've picked up the envelope you can start whenever you like. A team of two people will typically take around two hours to complete it, but the beauty of this game is that you can play it at your own pace - if you want to pop inside the National Gallery to see Van Gogh's Sunflowers then the game will still be waiting when you leave.
