Hello!!! OMG YES! We absolutely loved our murder mystery game. We used it at my sister’s bachelorette party. We had everyone dressed as different reality stars. The process was really easy, especially with editing and printing all the materials ourselves. My older sister was our host so we kept it simple but overall we really enjoyed it! Thank you!! Areeg
