What a great way to party - such good fun
I bought this for my 30th birthday and had a roaring 20s murder mystery. All of my guests loved it. We had the 14 guest version which was great as you got given clues on what to wear to help those who may struggle with fancy dress. The instructions are clear and the story we had adds some humour which was nice. We would definitely buy one again or even use the same one again and again as the murderer isn’t always the same but dependant on who guests pick out the “hat”Great fun

Roaring success for 60th birthday celebrations
We used to do Murder Mystery parties in our 20s, now in our 60s I decided to do one for my 60th birthday. We had 6 players but it still worked well. The audio file that introduced each 'act' helped to se the scene, and the fact that everyone dressed up in 1920s clothes helped a lot.It is very well presented and easy to follow even after a number of glasses of champagne!! You are each given a script for each scene varying depending on whether you are the murderer. The scripts were very well written for each character and if you get into acting it out, it was very funny.It didn't really matter when it referred to other characters who were not sat around the table, it was just like they were in another room.Also you draw secret lots as to who will be the murderer at the start with only them knowing who it is - me as host didn't know. This means that you can play the game again and again. And with 14 characters you can change who people are on another occasion.

Great fun for New Year's eve
Great fun for New Year's eve. Worked well with 10 people and randomly selecting the murderer on the night was fine. The costume ideas were good without needing too much effort. There was enough innuendo to be amusing but not offensive. It was very scripted and think picking the murderer was guesswork but would recommend if you want a non challenging fun game with friends.

Entertaining writing, well-executed
We had a great time - I would absolutely recommend!Tips:If doing with a dinner party - try to prep your food, set your table and have the food ready to take out of the oven/fridge. We did this and I am so grateful as you can't excuse yourself as host in this game if you are playing.We did a mingle question set for round 1 before dinner. It takes a while but is a great way to warm your guests up to each other. Then for time's sake after dinner we did round 2 and 3 at the table.We really appreciated the quirky and funny writing and had such a fun evening. Well done!

So easy to play!
I was really apprehensive about using this for my friends hen do. But it really is very straight forward and worked so well. Everyone got into character and even I got to play even though I organised it. We used the audios that came with the game. Very easy to use and made the game seem very professional. Loved it.

Great fun for a group
We had a great time playing this with friends. It's flexible and you don't find out the murderer until the evening which is great if you're prone to having people drop out of your social gatherings.Storyline is clever, witty and funny with only very moderate innuendo.The question format is nice: offering more flexibility than some Murder Mystery kits, allowing a more free flowing and convincing dialogue.

Far too short
This looks good and is nicely done, but there aren't nearly enough questions - a game took just over an hour, whereas most games of this type take around 2 hours.

It’s a Blast xo
This is by far the easiest and most fun dinner party event. Everything you need is in this pack (except decorations) but wow so easy to follow scripts were great too, we had different capabilities taking part and it worked a treat.I would suggest this to anyone and everyone

Best Murder Mystery Pack Ever! Perfect for beginners too
My friends and I had the best time playing this murder mystery!!! It was our first time yet still easy to put together. Super ideal that I as the host could still play too. We are going to try another theme in a few months. So much fun!!! Worth the money because it basically puts the party together for you 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

It's pretty fun
I enjoyed the fun cast of characters. Probably able to reuse the game with a different set of players

Great fun!
We played this game at our Halloween party. The characters and the scrip are absolutely fantastic and quite funny. Our group really embraced their characters and most dressed their part. I would suggest letting people know which character they will be playing in advance to give them time to decide on their clothing/costume. It took us a little bit of a while to sort through how to play but it was well worth it. This comes with an online audio narrative of evidence that is played at certain points of the game. We also used the theme music to which we added some Halloween music as people came in the room. We will definitely be purchasing another game from this company; they have a number of themes.

Super fun for entire family
The entire family loved this! We had 11 players ranging in age from 10-67. We found it appropriate and very easy to use/figure out. We will definitely order another one again and make it a part of our annual NYE celebration party.

Roaring good time!
The game was so fun and easy to set up! Murderer gets picked night of - no shows won’t ruin it. Didn’t have a CD player but was able to get the recordings online and play through my phone on a speaker.We also purchased it pretty close to the party date so couldn’t send out the invitations it came with, but there’s a site link they give so you’re able to send an Evite with character descriptions/ costume suggestions included. You can pick your characters or just assign them out.We slightly messed up the end but did a make shift “survivor-style” reveal of the murder and it was hilarious. Just set a phone up to record at the end and have everyone individually go in and say who they think did it!
