Host your own murder mystery — in person or over Zoom

Product details

What's included

Every game is a complete, ready-to-host kit: a Host Guide booklet, a character booklet for each guest, evidence booklets and evidence booklets and clues, detective audio & video files, a game ballot book, costume suggestions and ready-made invitations. Download it, and everything you need to run the night is in your hands.

How it works

No experience required. Choose your mystery, download instantly and send out the invitations. On the night, every guest plays a character with their own secrets — across three rounds you'll question suspects, weigh the evidence and vote for the killer. The Host Guide walks you through each step, and the host can play along too.

Players, timing & difficulty

Built for 4–14 players as standard and expandable to 20+ with an expansion pack — plus 2-player Cold Case Files made for date nights. Most games run 1.5–3.5 hours, sit at a relaxed ‘medium’ difficulty and suit ages 12+. Fully replayable, with a randomised culprit so the killer changes every time you host.

In person or virtual

Host around the dinner table or over a video call — every game works brilliantly both ways. Play straight from your screens — gather your friends, family or colleagues, and let the accusations begin.
