Customer Testimonial

Good morning! We ordered the premium Tracy Gang box for our 1920’s themed staff party. The box came with everything we needed to guide us through hosting a great night! Everyone loved the personalised name badges. The amount of information is daunting to begin with, which is why you need to familiarise yourself with the story etc. The party was a hit, the clues weren’t giving everything away so not every team was able to guess the correct murderer, which is great. Very detailed kit, which we were very happy with. Thank you!

What is a murder mystery party?

A murder mystery party is a live, interactive event where guests take on character roles and work together to solve a fictional crime. Unlike traditional sit-down games, most murder mystery experiences are more like a theatrical event, with players moving around, interacting, and uncovering clues through conversation. Each participant receives background information and secrets, and the story unfolds as the night progresses. In many games, one guest becomes the victim and another the murderer, while the rest work in teams to investigate and solve the mystery. Even the victim remains involved, helping guide the experience and keep the story engaging.

How many guests do I need?

For a 1920s murder mystery party we have options for small games of 1 to 4 people, medium games of 5 to 30 people and large games of 31 to 600 people.

How long does a 1920s murder mystery party last?

Generally you would allow 2 to 3 hours.

Can guests come without costumes?
