Another murder! A self contained point and click game to evolve inference skills, recognising links and comparisons of evidence through texts and logical development and above all…HAVE FUN! Suitable for all GCSE levels as well as Functional Skills English. This lesson works exceptionally well for cover lessons. Works well on tablets, laptops SMART boards and white-board projectors.
Can your students solve the mystery of Forestfield Estate? Each area offers clues to your student detectives. Can they spot the clues and recognise the red herrings!? Can they link, infer and collate the clues to spot the Killer from the innocents?
This game works brilliantly in small groups or as a whole class task with lower levels. Encouraging note taking, and spotting small details as well as how to filter and disregard non-relevant information. This lesson has proven popular with all my students and is even a bit of fun for teachers and support staff to join in the investigation.
The end also allows for class discussion on multiple topics such as ; crime, misunderstandings, communication skills, teamwork, mysteries, problem solving/puzzles and much more…!
Note: for best results, save and run on computer rather than via a cloud or Onedrive.

Hi there, I have just purchased this and my colleague also previously purchased your Mansion Resource which was fantastic and used to support my students in their group discussion for their Functional Skills speaking and listening assessment. We work in a Special School and our kids loved it. I wondered if you could help me with something though.... I have edited the text and photos on a few of the slides as his was easy. However, I would prefer the murderer to be his school friend. I'm still getting my story straight on why yet but I don't have the ICT skills to edit the slides to reveal him as the murderer rather than the neighbour. Is this something you could help me with please? Thank you so much.
A great mystery but I missed the motive! No explanation offered or did I miss something? Can't use if I can't explain it to my students properly.
This is an excellent resources! My small group of ESOL learners really enjoyed this! Thank you for making it; the added sounds/other effects were brilliant!
