13 would be sleuths are in what looks like a Mansion using the clue formula to solve a fictional murder. If you were a fan of the Movie Clue then I think you would watch this.

It is a reality tv competition tv show that is not trying to be a knock off Survivor, American Idol, Big Brother, THe Amazing Race, etc.
It's something original. The only other time I can recall a fictional murder used as a reality competition tv show is Murder in Small Town X that was ahead of it's time on Fox.

World Building Adventures

Xantar — Wed, 19 Jun 2013 10:45:53 GMT

I'm not really sure what the correct genre for this type of storyline called so let me elaborate:

It usually involved one very smart person or a group of people who see the world (economic/social/military) heading toward destruction/decline and wanted to help improve the nation/world structure.
It basically a story about their struggle with a nation/country/area how they try to get idea across to the general populace etc...

I prefer it's to be purely fantasy or LOGICAL technological growth from bronze/iron age era. (I'm an engineer.. maybe that's why?)
I don't want to read Science Fiction about Super advance society >.<, I hate futuristic Sci-Fi in Literature. For Film it's good cause it's visual, its epic! not so much for Literature.

One book came to mind is Guardian of the Flame where a group of adventures trying to abolish slavery throughout the nation/world. Their struggle and accomplishment is interesting to read :)
------------------------------------------
General formula:

(Small Settlement) >>> (Discovery ?) >>> (Growth Bloom) >>> (Epic Nation)
OR
(Declining Nation/Country) >>> (Political/Technological Advancement) >>> (Growth Bloom) >>> (Leading Nation)

and of course With Struggle/War/Betrayal etc etc in between =]
