Murder Mystery Games или MMG в России
За рубежом в живые квесты играют давно, там они известны под названием Murder Mystery Games. Они проводятся в кафе и клубах в Америке, Англии, Австралии.
Вот определение из английской Wikipedia:
«Murder mystery games are generally party games wherein one of the partygoers is secretly, and unknowingly, playing a murderer, and the other attendees must determine who among them is the criminal. This may involve the actual 'murders' of guests throughout the game, or may open with a 'death' and have the rest of the time devoted to investigation.
Interactive murder mystery games provide players with details of their character from the start, but it is up to the character to determine how they solve the murder. Often players have other objectives – such as to be the richest player at the end of the game. Most people will have their own secrets that have nothing to do with the murder. This provides even more reasons for players to interact with each other. These games are better suited to buffets or finger food as generally everyone needs to be able to mingle and also to talk to others without being overheard. Some are done during a sit down dinner as long as time is provided afterwards for guests to move about and mingle.(The drawbacks of this style is that when the murderer is revealed at the end, oftentimes guests feel cheated that they were not privy to the same "secret" information some actor quietly revealed to other players.)»
В России на некоммерческой основе в виде кабинетных ролевых игр живые квесты появились в начале 90-х. Мы постарались сделать этот вид досуга максимально доступным, понятным и интересным любому.
