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!
