FAQs / Shop
How many people can play?
Our Murder Mystery Party games each have a player count that lets you know the minimum number of players you need for the game to work and the maximum number of unque characters that are included. However, there is no limit to how many people can play along. Even if a guest is not assigned a unique character, they can still play along by asking questions and gathering clues.
Can the host play?
Yes! If you are hosting your event, you can absolutely play. Our games are designed so that everyone (including the host) only finds out who the murderer is at the very end. The ‘Big Reveal’ is an audio or video file, so there is no risk that anyone will accidentally see who the murderer is.
What type of Murder Mystery Party is this?
All of our games are Interactive Mysteries where players uncover clues by questioning their fellow guests. This type of social deduction game means players are totally free to investigate the mystery in their own way and at their own pace.
Are the games beginner friendly?
Yes! Even our moderate to challenging games are ideal for brand new players as well as experienced sleuths! New (and perhaps nervous) players don’t have to read out scripted lines or perform silly tasks. How much or little a player wants to roleplay as their character is entirely up to them!
Do your games pair well with food and drinks?
Because players are the suspects, our games are highly interactive. This makes them a great choice to pair with snacks/canapes and cocktails or *before* a meal - they will provide a lot to talk about during dinner! We generally don’t suggest playing our games *during* a sit-down meal as players will be moving around and interrogating their fellow suspects.
How long does it take to play?
Our mysteries are designed to last between 1 hour and 2 hours, depending on how you decide to play the game.
Can you play a game more than once?
No. Our mysteries are ‘one shot’ games that are carefully constructed so that the murderer is the only character with the means, motivation and opportunity to have committed the crime. This ensures our games feature high drama, devious twists and BIG reveals!
Can you play virtually via video chat?
Yes! All of our mysteries work great as virtual parties.
Do you give content warnings?
Yes! Every product page has a list of highlighted themes such as Murder, Violence and Illegal Substances.
The following themes are never featured: Child Abuse, Suicide, Self-Harm, Miscarriage & Infant Loss, Sexual Assault, Homophobia, Racism, Ableism & Real-Life Tragedies. While players are free to bring their own ideas and experiences to their game, these themes are never the intended interpretation.
