We played virtually, the instructions could be a bit more clear and better organized. I had a hard time knowing when to play the video and I missed it once and had to go back and play two videos at a time.

Game was fun. It was just really hard to hear because we had to play the game outside with 21 people! We made the best of it and everyone loved dressing up! Several people guessed the murderer!

I really like the game. BUT I bought the 4-8 person game. And was just sent the first 8 characters from the top of the list. Which means I only have 2 women and 1 gender neutral person. I feel actually been given a 50/50 mix would have been much better. As everytime we have played women have had to play men. It would have been nice for it to be more of a mix or more gender neutral characters rather than just the first 8 characters at the top. Otherwise the game is fun, and enjoyable.
Lorraine S.
It was good, but not as good as I expected. Most of us figured out who did it early in the game It also went a little slow with everyone reading from the script. I think I would but the responses on 5X7 cards... or something to allow our actors to be more engaged in their character.
Shelby R.
It was a great virtual team event!
Samuel F.
The 80' Murder Mystery was great, I had 19 people and some dressed up.
It was a very funny evening and only 2 people guessed the murderer correctly.
I would defiantly recommend this game.

Was really successful everyone had a few drinks and got really involved. I tried to cerate the booklets as least complicated as possible which helped. I provided evidence through a HDMI cable to the tv as well as on the pages which made it more interesting too. This website helped choose who to use as characters as there were 6 suspects for my game and that helped a lot. I would recommend this and I do think the drinks helped get everyone out their shell. great way to meet new people as well.

Hosting a virtual murder mystery with participants from both sides of an ocean seemed like it could be a mess- but it actually was great! Your product was easy to use and fun and the group really enjoyed it. We might just do another one!
Tracy G.
It was great. Though I'd probably have given the murderer her character booklet in advance as she struggled to make up lies on the spot so after the 1st round it was obvious it was her. The second round threw in some doubt with other characters but most people still guessed correctly.
Esther M.
Enjoyed the game but wish the random murderer option was available at time of purchase! We would love to be able to replay.
Judith S.
Had a really fun time. Well designed and easy to follow...great characters
Patricia K.
SO. MUCH. FUN!!!
Played this for my birthday party. I printed out the character booklets, but they could be sent as files to participants. We played with all 20 characters. Only 6 people guessed who the murderer was.... the story was so detailed and so much fun! Will be playing another one soon!

We purchased our 80's Murder Mystery to use virtually for our teaching staff holiday party. I saved everything separately and emailed out just before each round - perhaps having a virtual option with each round separated out might be helpful to other people wanting to do the party virtually? Or to time when info is released? We had an absolutely amazing time though and thoroughly enjoyed the characters and the roles themselves. Most of us had never taken part in a Murder Mystery before and would all partake again. Thanks for such a fun night!

Thirteen of us played this game over zoom and we had such a fun time! The plot was fun and we all got into the spirit with our 80s outfits!
This game was worth every penny and I’ll definitely buy another and would highly recommend it for a fun night with friends!

Downloaded this to use on teams, for a bit of relief from lockdown.
First, although advertised as being suitable for teams / zoom etc (and it went reasonably well), it’s not actually written with any nod to that at all. All of the instructions were like you’d expect for a room full of people chatting in side conversations etc.
It was still great fun, but much more “take turns” and less natural than doing it normally.
Only real -ve feedback is that the format for shared evidence isn’t that great (designed to be printed, was v. Clunky trying to have everyone open separate files in different formats on their devices), and the printable PDF’s have been made by someone who is on commission for black ink sales!
On the positive side, it was great fun, the characters have a decent scope for terrible overacting and silly accents, and it was a great diversion from lockdown. If doing online I’d suggest limiting numbers for the core pack not the larger group (purely because it became really obvious who had main parts vs bolt on parts) but as ever if you have the right guests, nights like this are always a great laugh.

Great idea for a zoom night with friends. I ordered this game for a friends birthday and we were not disappointed!
Summer N.
Our family did a group Birthday party for my daughter and husband and everyone loved it!
Amanda A.
This brilliant Murder Mystery made my lockdown birthday party a really special day. Everyone joined into the spirit of their characters by dressing up and trying out some really good accents! Would highly recommend this to everyone.
Aislyn B.
Game was super fun! The only odd thing was one character was unexpectedly female - a detail I didn't notice (given amount of materials to review) and it was a key detail. All guests got creative with costumes and had a blast staying in character. Would definitely do it again!
Nadia D.
Hilarious fun, we all entered into the full spirit of our characters. We were 4 couples with our 9 year old daughter acting as the inspector. Worked really well via Zoom. We all really enjoyed it, thank you.
Deborah L.
Bought this an adapted it to a virtual event which worked really well for a 50th birthday.

Murder Mystery Party Success!!
Everyone had a great time!!
Elena A.
We had an incredible time with friends during the New Year's Eve staying in these fun and exciting characters.
We all had crazy accents and laughed so much!
Directions where absolutely easy to follow, we have recreated the evidence and had a green screen to take fun photos after the game and used 80's props to make the experience even better!
Definitely the best Murder Mystery Night we've ever hosted!
DIANA B.
Fun night with a great theme and characters.
Rachael S.
We did this virtually it was brilliant. Everything was saveable on devices so I could send it to those in the party, everyone dressed up and got involved. I read the instruction book and it was easy to follow.
Marian P.
It was the perfect birthday gift to do with friends - being virtual didn't make it any less fun. Thank you!
Greg C.
We had an absolute blast and you can tell from the costumes, everyone was completely into it. We will be getting another one.
Hannah S.
I liked the story and the suggested questions. Is have preferred a bit of a script. It also stated not to read beyond a certain page. It would have been helpful to read in advance so people knew what to do.
Samantha B.
Great to play when you’ve exhausted everything else on zoom!!
Amy S.
Brilliant to be used via zoom for my birthday party this year. Everyone loved it, and it was great fun.
Would be great if it was more digitally friendly and documents didn't rely on being printed, there were large expanses of solid colour, not great for printing.
Jen H.
Really enjoyed this game. I would suggest pre-reading your info first otherwise it can be a bit steady! Great game. Good story. Everyone guessed correctly so I would say 7/10 for difficulty
Tennessee R.
Thoroughly enjoyed! Everyone had so much fun and really got into character! Was perfect for my lockdown birthday
Emily T.
Absolutely brilliant!!!! I've played this twice now with two different groups of friends and everyone had so much fun! The more that join the longer and more fun it lasts.
Neil W.
I composed a little theme, which I recorded in several different styles, these I used as an introduction for the inspector to present his clues. His script I recorded too, this enabled me to be a character in the evening.
We had a fantastic time as we are a large family that live in the same house, it was an enjoyable themed evening.
Bianca Z
I had such a blast at my murder mystery party last weekend! Everyone dressed their parts so well. Thanks for creating such great materials!

We had great fun playing the 80s virtual murder mystery on zoom!

We hosted a Zoom 80’s Murder Mystery Party for my pal Amy’s birthday. It was super easy and fun to setup and everyone had a blast - mainly because we all committed to staying in character and dressing up. We had a totally tubular time!

A fun evening of virtual mystery with ‘A Totally Rad 1980’s Mystery.
