What Is a Murder Mystery Party?
A murder mystery party is an interactive social event where every guest becomes a suspect in a thrilling investigation. As the story unfolds, players question one another, share information and attempt to expose the killer before it is too late. The best part is watching your friends accuse each other with complete confidence while being completely wrong.

FAQ
How many people do I need for a murder mystery game?
Boxed games are for 9 to 60 or 61 to 120 people.
Downloadable games are for 1 to 15, 16 to 30, 31 to 60, 61 to 120, 120 to 300 or 301 to 600 people.
How long does a murder mystery party take?
A typical murder mystery party lasts between 2 and 3 hours, depending on the game format, number of players, and how quickly guests engage with the mystery. Smaller groups often finish closer to 2 hours, while larger groups may take up to 3 hours as more players interact and share clues.
What sort of venue do I need?
Because murder mysteries involve playing games and your guests doing lots of fun and silly things, they need a quiet venue with lots of space.
You can hold a murder mystery at home or in a function venue. Try any venue which:
- Is completely private i.e.: not a restaurant or public spaces.
- Is very quiet i.e. no bands, piped music or DJ's next door.
- Has lots of room to move around. Imagine all your guests standing in a circle.
- You need one central area big enough for all guests at one time.
Do my guests have to act?
Absolutely not! No acting experience is required. Players can participate at their own comfort level. If the murder mystery places participants in groups this is even better. The more gregarious players can take the spotlight while the more reserved players can share clues or sleuth away in the background.
What if I have an odd number of guests or last-minute dropouts?
Our games are super flexible and allow characters to be removed or reassigned easily so the game can continue even if a player drops out. You will never need to worry about last minute cancellations.
Can the host play too?
Yes!
Our games come with a step by step run sheet that guides you through every part of the game. The murderer is only identified in the full story so you can keep the game spoiler free until everyone finds out.

You have great choices:
- Our "Bogan Bride (or Redneck Bride) and the Billionaire" theme is set at a wedding and is perfect.
- Our "Hollywood Scandal" theme has characters that could either be boys or girls with names like "The Star" and "The Producer".
- Our "Wild West" theme involves a wedding and a baby swap and is great for a Hen’s Night (some guests will be boys but this increases the fun!)
