Customer Testimonial

The games are great, I ordered both a box and an online version. Our host Robyn was fantastic and kept a bunch of 16 years olds entertained for 3 hours (best money I have ever spent LOL) and everything ran smoothly. I think having a host was the key. Bronwyn Kennedy

FAQ

Are murder mystery games difficult to run?

No, most games are designed to be easy to run with clear instructions. Preparation usually involves following a step by step procedure, making it accessible for beginners.

Can I make it a surprise party?

We generally don’t recommend keeping a murder mystery party as a complete surprise. While you’re free to run your event however you like, guests tend to enjoy the experience more when they know what to expect. Because murder mystery parties are interactive and often involve dressing up, giving people advance notice helps build excitement and participation.

If you’re planning a surprise birthday party, it’s best to bring in the murder mystery host after the surprise has taken place. Once the surprise happens, there is usually 30–45 minutes of meet and greet while the guest of the moment greets everyone. This makes it difficult to start the game straight away. For example, if the surprise is at 7:00pm, have your host arrive around 7:30pm so they can set up and begin once things settle.

If the host arrives before the surprise, they may be left waiting with little to do. Similarly, for workplace events, it’s better not to surprise your colleagues—letting them know in advance will lead to a more engaged and enjoyable experience.

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?

1920s costumes look super cool but are not essential. Why not provide some cheap hats and feather boas.

Can children play?

Kids are fine but that is up to you. The 1920s theme does include violence and bootleg alcohol so you have to consider that.

Can everyone be a suspect?

Yes, everyone is a suspect gangster right up until the end.

What happens if someone cancels?

Our games are super flexible and immediately adapt to different guest numbers.

Can I host the game outdoors?

You could especially in an old barn but normally you would pick an indoor art deco venue.
