A great day out - We loved seeing the city this way. It was a great day out. One of our participants was in a wheelchair and it was a great experience for everyone as there were no stairs to figure out. We stopped for lunch and exchanged theories.

Great fun for a couple of amateur sleuths - My wife wanted to do something fun and I found this thinking I was buying a Murder Mystery dinner experience. While trying to find the address of where it was located, I found it was this completely different experience. We did the driving piece because I am disabled. It was a blast finding the place and sitting there looking at the real location, that matched the photo provided, and listening to the audio. We made notes and my wife got the murderer correct. I was leaning to someone else. Two of the stops didn't have a place to park where the photo was taken so we had to modify and missed the observation questions and one location was under construction and did not match the photo but we figured out the correct answer to the observation question using deduction and driving around a bit. We even found the exact location for the final stop where there was no address given because you can serve the warrant anywhere. If I wasn't disabled, I would like to try the walking event.

overall fun way to spend an afternoon in Chapel Hill - fun - many of the locations didn't need to be visited to work the clues - when asking what direction certain things you should specify which direction you need to be facing to determine that - it was overall enjoyable though

Took too long. - We enjoy escape rooms so I thought this would be along the same lines but different. It was just OK. The walk around Chapel Hill was nice as I've never been there. It says that it takes 2 hours but it took us 3.5 hours which leads to a loss of interest. A lot of that is just sitting at the different locations, listening to the audio or trying to flip between required screens on my phone. This part was very slow. In fairness, I'm not sure if that was my phone (android), my service (US Cellular) or the app.

Not worth the Money or Time!! - Would have been better to throw in some historical places in chapel Hill rather than deserted buildings and a Target. Would have been more fun to interact with people in town that were in on the Mystery too. Totally boring and the Police chief’s questions had nothing to do with the case and did not get a summary of how many we got right.

The explanations at each... - The explanations at each stop were extremely long and hard for the group to hear on speaker from my phone…. It would be great to have the information in text so we could have the option to read it instead of only being able to listen… also, the App was very confusing and took awhile to navigate
