Hello again! Remind us who you are and what business you started.

Hi guys! My name is Jimmy Cowe and I started Crimibox in 2017. With Crimibox, we make and sell fictional murder cases as an escape game via our webshop. People order their cases online and receive a box full of evidence, pictures, and police files. Together with their online partner, they need to sort out who the murderer is.

The idea of selling fictional murder cases started with a post-it on my fridge. I have worked for the police for 12 years so I have seen some incredible stories. I was tired of working for someone and I wanted to start a new business. So I quit, hung a post-it on my fridge to brainstorm for ideas and Crimibox was born!

Anno 2021 we are with six full-time employees, had a partnership with a Netflix series, and ended 2020 with 1.5 million as a turnover. We’re also active in more than four languages in twelve countries. More than a quarter of a million worldwide!
