We made my son Emperor Palpatine and worked in three groups of five. It was a great night. I converted my dining room into the Death Star, bought dry ice for the drinks and made food from a Star Wars menu. Thank you for an amazing time. Alison Bernstein.

FAQ
What is a murder mystery game?
A murder mystery game is a set of materials designed to help a host run an interactive murder mystery experience. They typically include character profiles, clues, secret information, and instructions that guide players through a fictional crime. The materials may be physical or digital and participants use these materials to uncover evidence, interact with each other, and solve the mystery.
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.
What do you need for a murder mystery party?
You need the game materials (digital or physical), a group of players, a space to host the event, and optional extras like themed decorations, costumes, and food to enhance the experience.
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.
Can murder mystery games be played virtually?
Yes, all our games are designed for online play using video conferencing tools, making them suitable for remote teams and virtual parties. We have our own in-house system that lets you share clues and interact virtually.
What makes a good murder mystery game?
A good game has a clear storyline, engaging characters, balanced clues, and an easy-to-follow structure that keeps players involved. They are also produced to a high standard of design.
Does the murderer know they are the murderer?
No, but they play the game the same as everyone else. The murderer is a specific character that the host will pick at the start of the night but that person does not know they are the murderer.
Our experience has shown that this is the better strategy. When someone knows they are the murderer they often act "nervous" or "different" and this can cause people to choose them just by how they are acting. We want everyone to enjoy the game whether they are the murderer or not.
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.
What are your best selling murder mystery games?
Our best selling games tend to be Tracy Gang 1920s, Hollywood Scandal, Caribbean Cruise, Wild West, Christmas Capers and Hippie Homicide 1960s.
What games are suitable for small groups of 4 to 10 people in Vancouver?
Our Dinner Edition games are specially designed for small groups of 4 to 10 people in Vancouver.
Can large groups play murder mystery games in Vancouver?
