Murder At Old Changi Hospital – Can You Solve It This Halloween?

Following the success of 2020’s interactive horror-mystery theatrical gameplay Murder at Mandai Camp, Sight Lines Entertainment presents the Halloween escape experience of 2021 – Murder at Old Changi Hospital. Written by award-winning playwright Chong Tze Chien, Augmented reality (AR) interactions and spatial audio surround sound will draw you into the unsolved murder plaguing the infamous site. Plunged straight into the action, you and your friends will take on the role of Singapore’s most talented paranormal investigators, tasked with decoding puzzles and deciphering 360-degrees video footage and flashbacks, to solve the terrifying mystery.

Murder at Old Changi Hospital – Solve The Mysterious Murder

Murder at Old Changi Hospital continues Derrick Chew (Executive Producer, Sight Lines Entertainment) and Chong’s mission to embrace technology, pioneering their own brand of “media-tainment” combining theatre, film, technology and gaming. Their virtual escape room experiences – each more extensive than the last – has brought art lovers and new audiences a new brand of digital entertainment.

Audience-participants are drawn into the eerie halls of Changi Hospital, past and present, as Singapore’s most talented paranormal investigators. Tasked by fellow paranormal investigator (Bright Ong) to uncover the events leading up to the alleged murder of a young canteen worker, Farah Aiyah (played by Munah Bagharib) and the disappearance of the four Commandos associated with the victim in 1996. 25 years on, distant cries continue to bedevil the abandoned hospital, leaving the mystery to be solved by viewers.

Set within Changi Hospital, viewers will brave the chilling narrative, piecing together physical evidence and puzzles, as well as video footage and flashbacks in 360-degree video format, to solve the cold case. Along with tech partner The Doodle People, they will bring the suspense through the screens and into homes with AR interactions and immersive Spatial Audio surround sound.

The hunt unfolds in a non-linear format, with its flow completely determined by viewers. No two playthroughs will be the same as the choose-your-own-adventure mechanic allows for freedom of exploration with every choice determining what can and cannot be viewed.

An achievement system within the game is key to solving the case. Only players who have identified all the necessary evidence and identify the culprit within 90 minutes can truly solve the case.
