How I Met Your Murderer

About The Event: Campus Scavenger Mystery is an immersive team-based game combining campus exploration, clue-solving, strategy, social deduction, and murder mystery. Guided by TEDx-inspired storytelling, teams navigate distinct routes across campus, solve mini-challenges, and piece together evidence to deduce WHO, WHERE, and HOW the murder took place. United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs): SDG 4: Quality Education — Promotes critical thinking, observation, and complex problem-solving. SDG 16: Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions — Emphasizes evidence-based reasoning, deduction, and analytical decision-making. SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals — Fosters teamwork, strategic collaboration, and peer coordination under pressure. Round Wise Details: Round 1: Campus Scavenger Mystery: Format: Multi-scenario team-based campus hunt. Mechanism: Teams follow strictly assigned routes, uncovering clues and solving physical/analytical mini-challenges along the way. The final clue leads teams to "The Switch"—a fast-paced activity based on participation/performance where top-performing teams qualify for the next stage. Timeline: Route Allocation → Clue Hunt → Final Clue → The Switch → Qualification. Round 2: The Mystery Auction: Format: Live strategic auction & case defense. Mechanism: Qualified teams receive ₹10,000 in fictional currency. Mystery evidence clues are auctioned off one by one. Teams must manage their capital and bid strategically on evidence to establish the WHO, WHERE, and HOW of the murder. Teams submit their solution once confident. Timeline: Currency Allocation → Live Auction → Evidence Analysis → Final Submission → Winners Announcement.
