Vancouver Mysteries is thrilled to launch our newest portable game The Legend of the Gastown Gold in downtown Vancouver during the 2025 Dine Out Festival.
The Mystery: Solve the Legend of the Gastown Gold at the Delta Hotels by Marriott Vancouver Downtown Suites at 550 West Hastings Street – a Vancouver Mysteries game experience set in the wild west coast in 1886. This experience includes a detective to start your mystery and help with clues if you get stuck. A Vancouver Mysteries detective will meet you in the hotel’s lobby lounge with everything you need to play including a crate full of artifacts that you will need to use to solve the mystery. You have 90 minutes to figure out where the gold is buried? Can you solve the puzzles, crack the codes and unlock the boxes to collect the clues?
The Culinary Experience: This experience includes one drink per person (house beer/wine) and a delicious Stock Board to share between two people. Sign up in teams of 2 to 10 people.. This Dine Out Fest experience is a partnership between Vancouver Mysteries and Stock and Supply restaurant, located inside the hotel.
Elevate your game night and sign up with friends to be the first to play this new Vancouver Mysteries game.

How Does it Work?
This is a collaborative and social experience – you will be seated with other groups who have signed up for the same time slot and solve the mystery together.
You will be seated during this experience – players are seated at a long table in the hotel lobby lounge during the game, solving escape room style challenges. The servers from Stock and Supply restaurant will serve you food/drinks at your table. Arrive on time to get your drink orders in before the experience begins. Then, enjoy your Stock Boards after the game (one Stock Board to share between every 2 people, with adjustments made for parties who sign up in uneven numbers).
(If you’d like to book a private experience, you will need to book at least 8 spots for the night you choose or contact us and we can bring this portable mystery experience to you for up to 50 people starting February 10 2025.)
