How a night works

You are not watching a murder mystery. You are in one, with a team, a clock and a room full of liars.

  1. 1

    Get your tag

    Arrive, collect your tag and join your team. Your team is your alibi and your best shot.

  2. 2

    The party begins

    Food, music and good company. Everyone is smiling. Pay attention, because one of them is not who they seem.

  3. 3

    Work the room

    Games, challenges and a few surprises. Nobody here gives answers for free, so earn them.

  4. 4

    Trust carefully

    Your team will not see everything. Trade what you know, and choose who to believe.

  5. 5

    Name the killer

    Hand in your verdict. The host reveals who did it, and which team saw it coming.

Case files

Every night we've thrown and every body we've dropped, pinned to the board.

Who is next?

What do I wear?

Who we are

Lagos' first roving murder mystery party.

The Loaded Dice was dreamed up by two mystery minds. One dinner table turned crime scene, and the dice have been loaded ever since. Now there is a whole team behind it, chasing more magic, more shows and more nights where nobody sees it coming.

Every episode lands at a different venue with a new story, a new cast of suspects and a new crime scene, written for Lagos and played by people who love it.
