Replay-able Polar Train Murder Mystery Dinner Party Game - Host A Christmas Dinner Party Game Night - Christmas Express Train Party Game - Santa Fancy Dress Party Game English 4-20 Players V2

This boxed kit is designed for in-person play, gathering your guests together for a festive Polar Express dinner party set aboard the Northern Express train. The physical booklets, evidence and invitations are all made for hosting around a table.

If you'd prefer to play virtually or would rather print your own materials, a digital and printable version of this game is also available, which is better suited to hosting over a video call.

Poison on the Northern Express typically takes around 1.5 to 3.5 hours to play, making it a perfect centrepiece for a Christmas dinner party or festive games night.

The exact running time depends on your group size and how much your guests get into their characters and the investigation. Larger groups and enthusiastic role-play will naturally sit at the longer end of that range, while a smaller gathering may wrap up sooner.

It's easy to pace around a meal, so you can weave the mystery through courses and let the evening unfold at a relaxed, festive pace.

This is a physical, boxed edition of Poison on the Northern Express, posted directly to you and ready to host straight out of the box. Inside you'll find a Host Guide Booklet to walk you through the evening, a set of Character Booklets, and Invitation Booklets to send out to your guests before the party.

You'll also receive an Evidence book to help your detectives piece the mystery together, Detective Audio Files to guide the investigation, and costume suggestions included within the in-character guide booklets.

Everything needed to run this festive Polar Express whodunnit is provided in the box, so there's no printing or downloading required on your part.

Yes. Poison on the Northern Express is fully replayable. The murderer is randomly selected each time you play, so the culprit and the outcome can change from one game night to the next.

This means you can enjoy the same festive mystery with a different group of friends and family, or even revisit it with the same guests, and still have a fresh whodunnit to solve each time.

With its festive Polar Express theme, this game is perfect for Christmas celebrations of all kinds, from family Christmas dinner parties to festive games nights with friends.

It makes a wonderful centrepiece for holiday get-togethers, seasonal parties, and any gathering where you want to add a memorable, interactive twist to the evening. It's also a great way to bring guests together over a festive meal during the Christmas season.

This game is recommended for players aged 14 and over. The mystery, which centres on a poisoning aboard the Northern Express, sits at a medium difficulty and is best enjoyed by teens and adults.

Its festive theme makes it a lovely choice for a family Christmas gathering, as long as everyone taking part is comfortably within that age range.

Costumes are entirely optional, but they're warmly encouraged to bring the magic of the Polar Express to life. Dressing up adds to the fun and helps everyone get into character aboard the Northern Express.

The kit includes costume suggestions within the in-character guide booklets, with plenty of festive options such as train conductors, cosy pyjama-clad passengers or even Santa himself. However you choose to dress, the mystery plays just as well whether guests go all out or keep it simple.

This game is built to suit a range of group sizes, comfortably accommodating anywhere from a smaller gathering up to a larger festive party, with a mix of gender-neutral, male and female characters to share out among your guests.

If you'd like to host an even bigger crowd, expansion packs can be used to add more players and characters. Guests who aren't playing a named character can also join in as detectives, helping to question suspects and solve the poisoning.
