Aim

We want to create a new FREE interactive mystery which can be played world wide for enjoyment and education using the Time Trap in Grimsby.


We are Red Herring Games.  We are a Small Business, based in Grimsby, run by Jo Smedley, a local female entrepreneur.

We have been creating murder mystery games and scripts for over 15 years, and a few years ago, as part of a museums at night experience and with the help of sponsorship funding and local businesses Chris Lynn Photography, and Brink Marketing we turned a museums at night project, into a virtual murder mystery that could be played by anyone.

We had no idea how popular the idea would be, and since it launched, it's been played by educators all across the world.  

Not a week goes by where we don't get asked for more games like it.  You can play the original HERE.

However we can't create free games without funding.  They're not easy to make, and the one we currently have, will eventually stop working as technology progresses and the software it uses to run becomes obsolete.

It would be such a shame to lose what is a lovely advertisement for Grimsby Fishing Heritage Centre, but without funding we can't maintain it, and so far, we just don't have that funding to overhaul that existing, but popular creation.

We now have our sights set on creating a second game which we hope will work more reliably and last longer, and have our eyes on the Time Trap, a much underused museum in Grimsby as a basis for the next plot.

We'd love it if you could help make this a reality!  If we get 50% funded on Crowdfunder, Grimsby Creates will match fund the rest!  So we're asking for support, even £1 helps!  

There are also sponsorship deals in the options.  If you are an international company and work with educators, this is a great opportunity to get featured in the next game knowing it'll get a lot of long term views and get your brand into new markets.
