Customer Testimonial

I wanted to do something special for my 30th birthday. After researching online I found your site, booked a host and selected the Hollywood game. The host made the night run very easily and it was a great theme for guests to get into. The instructions were very clear and the game ran for two to three hours. The guests loved it and I would definitely do one again.

Do you need a host for a murder mystery party?

Our murder mystery games are designed to be self-hosted, meaning no professional host is required. The game materials guide the host step by step through the experience.
