Imagine stepping into a 1926 Paris attic in Montmartre—an intimate, vintage setting buzzing with artists, writers, and socialites. Now, picture yourself not just watching but actively participating in a murder mystery where you’re assigned a role, secrets, and a mission. For $87 per person, this immersive experience promises a delightful mix of theatrical storytelling, gourmet Sicilian food, and lively roleplay that transports you out of Berlin into a bustling Parisian scene from nearly a century ago.
Two aspects we particularly appreciated are the authentic period dress code, encouraging you to go all out in 1920s fashion, and the delicious Sicilian menu, which elevates the evening from a simple game to a full culinary adventure. The unlimited drinks and interactive gameplay make this experience especially suited for groups looking to bond, celebrate, or simply enjoy a night of fun and mystery.
A potential consideration is that the experience is focused on role-playing and storytelling, so if you’re not keen on costumes or acting, it might not be your perfect fit. Also, children under 18 are not allowed, making it more suitable for adults or older teens. We think this tour is ideal for groups of friends, couples, or team-building events who enjoy a little theatrical flair combined with great food.

A Closer Look at the Murder Mystery Dinner Experience
While in Berlin, here are other experiences we've covered
The Setting and Atmosphere
We loved the way the experience transports you to 1926 Montmartre, thanks to the well-designed attic apartment. The setting feels cozy and personal, making it easy to get into the spirit of the era. Dress in your best 1920s attire—flapper dresses, bow ties, or vintage suits—and you’ll feel part of the lively, glamorous scene.
The theatrical ambiance is enhanced by the roleplay element. Before the evening begins, each participant is given a character sheet that details their background, secrets, and objectives. This setup encourages you to get into character, whether you’re a secretive artist or a cunning socialite, making the whole night more immersive and fun.
The Food and Drinks
The menu showcases authentic Sicilian dishes that elevate the evening beyond just a game. We enjoyed the antipasti—think caponata—that served as a flavorful start, followed by the busiate al Pesto Trapanese, a regional pasta dish packed with bold flavors. The arancino offered a satisfying bite, and the ricotta cannoli was a perfect sweet finish.
What sets this experience apart is the inclusive nature of the food and drinks—a real feast for the senses. The welcome cocktail, a spicy spritz, helps break the ice, and the Limoncello rounds it off nicely. It’s worth noting that additional drinks are not included, so if you want more after the set offerings, you’ll need to purchase separately.
The Gameplay and Interaction
The heart of this experience is interactive storytelling. Throughout the evening, you’ll be unraveling clues, solving riddles, and trying to identify the killer before it’s too late. We found this especially engaging because it’s not just a simple dinner but a full-on theatrical event.
Participants are encouraged to trust no one, adding a layer of suspense and excitement. As one reviewer put it, “Come hungry. Stay sharp. Trust no one.” This makes it perfect for team-building or celebrating a special occasion, as everyone gets to engage actively.
