★★★★★ Sharon Leal In May a crew of 4 presented the Caribbean Cruise Murder Mystery for a group of 24 at our Seniors Group. The timeframe for prep was a lot longer than anticipated. However, we all had a blast and will be running it again in September for more members who were unable to attend.

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!

A murder mystery party is a live, interactive event where guests take on character roles and work together to solve a fictional crime.

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.
