CSI. The Experience

Yesterday went to the Science centre for CSI: The Experience. For those who don't know about CSI, it stands for Crime Scene Investigator. You could catch the drama on AXN (CH 511) or FoxCrime (CH 503) on Starhub Cable tv.


The tickets for entry is $20 for adults and $16 for kids (not very confirmed for the kids part) The package with Science Centre is @ $21 meaning you could enter for both CSI: The Experience and Science Centre.
Passion Card holders will get 10% off and if you are Starhub user, please bring along proof you are one and you will be entitle slightly more discount according to lady who serve us but we did not bring any to proof.


So CSI: The Experience is a exhibition that gives you a 1st hand experience to being Crime Scene Investigator, there are 3 separate cases with different evidence display and your job is to follow the evidence to find the killers looking at various evidence including looking at the mock up crime scene, finger prints and DNA.
So through out exhibition, it gives you an opportunity to know more about what exactly a CSI do so even if you do not watch the tv show. Going there would be an even bigger eye opener on how crimes are solved these days.

The exhibition would you last 2 to 3 hours depending on how fast or how detailed you look at the stuff. You would enter the exhibition and be given a case file, followed by watching a short clip and know what is require from you. Thereafter you would proceed to the relevant crime scene and follow the case file to the relevant exhibit and at the end of following all the case file you reach some computers for you to type in your report for your findings and end the at of it you would be able either to purchase a diploma @ $8 or have a softcopy send to an email for being able to follow the evidence and solve the case.

After this you would exit the exhibition and there are additional exhibition about the CSI and then you need to re-enter to do the other 2 cases but without watching the clips and stuff.

Personally i had a good time there, it is not that difficult to solve the crime as the audience age group is pretty wide so they do make it more simple to cater to primary school kids, but it is certainly worth going for different weekend outing for friend or couples rather than the usual movie or ktv. Do note: NO Photography allowed in the exhibition. Enjoy !
