Blue Chest Games
Dive into early ’90s corporate intrigue with Blue Chest Games’ "Death of a Patriarch" in Kamloops. Decode family secrets and unravel a CEO’s mysterious death in this thrilling urban adventure.
Blue Chest Games designs and runs immersive murder-mystery roleplaying experiences. Featured on The Adventure Collective, Blue Chest Games offers four distinct interactive events that place players in the middle of a scripted yet flexible investigation. Each experience invites participants to adopt roles—suspect, investigator, or murderer—and to use clues, conversation, and deception to uncover the truth.
Current experiences include "Tragedy on the slopes", a cold-weather mystery set on a mountain; "Who Killed Santa Claus?" (Ho Ho Oh No!), a holiday-themed roleplaying game that explores a tyrannical Santa at the North Pole; "Death of a Patriarch", an early-1990s corporate whodunit centered on the suspicious death of CEO Bernard Kingstone; and "Murder at the Knight Owl Theatre", set during an album release party for Black Bat Mountain where a murder disrupts the celebration.
Blue Chest Games focuses on narrative detail, character-driven interrogation, and evidence-based deduction. Game materials and scripts guide play while allowing improvisation and player-driven outcomes. Sessions emphasize social interaction, investigative thinking, and theatrical roleplay rather than physical challenge.
Booking details, scheduling options, and specific venue arrangements are provided directly by Blue Chest Games or through The Adventure Collective listing. Prospective players should consult the company listing for availability, pricing, and age-appropriate guidance.
