The Kit
Everything in your kitThe Guest List · Murder on Broadway
Every guest becomes a character. Choose your edition by how many join the party — the bigger the night, the deeper the cast.
Want every suspect at your table? Pick the 4–20 edition.
Free with every game — never required
Every kit is complete on its own — and every game now includes a free app. Use it, and it sends cinematic invitations, slips each guest their secret script, and quietly casts the killer.
Cast your guests and the app sends each one a cinematic invitation — their character, their costume brief, and an RSVP that fills your table for you.
Before the party, each guest steps into the green room — their character portrait, their backstory, their costume, and lines only they can see.
One tap, and someone in the room becomes the murderer. Only their phone knows. They read the guilty lines; everyone else plays it straight. Nobody can spoil it — not even the host.
Tap-to-examine evidence lands each round, the Detective's recordings set the scene, and when it's time, a synchronized countdown unmasks the killer on every phone at once.
More ways to play
Snap a photo in costume and it becomes your character's face — on the ballots and at the reveal.
Every guest's photos and videos collect in one shared party album — to relive the morning after.
Run the night as the Detective, or play a character yourself and let the app's recordings narrate.
Vote on the honours — Best Detective, Best Costume, Best Liar — and crown them together at the end.

Was very long with so many people but was SO much fun!
This was such an easily navigable and extremely fun experience!! Every single person was invested and had an absolute blast!!
Resources were good quality and easy to use. Invitations, clues, audio clips etc. Script questions were a bit repetitive in places but this reflects the fact that this is a very versatile kit, giving you lots of options of numbers and which characters to use. Good value and provided a fun evening for my daughter's birthday.
We had a great time! Everyone got into character. A party of 20 took us about 4 hours to complete. Would love to try hosting another murder mystery party as a dinner party!
Fabulous evening as always, scripts very well written and already looking forward to next year!
We had our High School Drama Club be the murder suspects. It was highly applauded.
We absolutely loved the game! It was incredibly fun to get together as Members of Kappa Kappa Psi and do this as a brotherhood event night! 10/10 would recommend to anybody and we are definitely doing another one in the spring!
My daughter’s Sweet 16 was made so fun by our broadway murder mystery. This group of theater kids devoured it!
My kiddo said it was his favorite birthday party ever.
We had a great time doing the 1950s Broadway murder mystery. Highly recommend.
Such a fabulous night….. absolutely loved every minute of the game- now booking our next one xxxxx
Super fun time had by all
Great 16th birthday party! Everyone had a good time and got into character!
Tons of fun. super organized. everything you need for a fun mystery party. we did it with a bunch of 12/13 year olds and had a blast.
The premise and overall kit was very very fun and entertaining. There are some curse words in it that were a little shocking for the teens we did this with. Also several typos. But overall we loved it and would purchase from them again.
an sich sehr coole Idee, habe nicht wirklich ein anderes für so viele Personen gefunden und wir hatten viel Spaß. Allerdings war es schon seehr scripted und in den fragerunden hat man nicht wirklich etwas Neues rausbekommen. Außerdem waren manche der Hinweise irgendwie unnötig, weil sie nichts mit irgendeiner Spur zutun hatten. Trotzdem cooles Prinzip
Fun game that my party enjoyed! I do wish there were a few more unique answers for the larger party sizes hence 4 not 5 stars. But overall, very good time!
We had a great time with the mystery. My guests got into their roles, and the package gave us everything we needed. Thanks!
It was so easy to follow and fun to do! We all had such a great time.
We did this for a group of 12-13 year olds. We had a larger group and it does have a slower pace of game play if your kids aren’t too outgoing. If you are playing with a conservative crew (worried about language), you can go through the pamphlets and edit some of the language (a couple of ass, damn & douche bag). We did not use the character who was having an affair as a part of her storyline. I did go through and change that in the books we gave to the kids. It was tedious because we had so many playing It was really nice that all I needed to do was print everything. The kids dressed up and we had a fancy party. It was very fun!
Our host, Kyle, did a wonderful job putting up with 16 teenage girls for our murder masquerade birthday party. After 20 to 30 minutes the girls were all very absorbed into the mystery and enjoying the game. This was definitely a birthday our daughter will never forget! Thank you so much! Tim
Got this for my teenager’s birthday party. She and all her friends are highly involved with the theatre program at school and had a blast with the game.
This was a second purchase in a year. 1. 1.Glad that the murderer wasn’t predetermined. 2.This format seemed more appropriate for online groups than in person. It wasnt as smooth to conduct amongst a group(no chatting) and had more directed questions. 3.As a group we preferred last years ability to ‘socialize’ and share info about other players during each round.
We used this game for my daughter’s 14th birthday party with a group of 8. They had a blast!
Wir hatten super viel Spaß! Und vor allem das verkleiden und in verschiedene Rollen schlüpfen war mega. Allerdings war auch recht viel gescripted und mit 16 Leuten wäre es nach unserem Wunsch toller gewesen, wenn nicht zu viel text vorgelesen werden muss, sondern auch improvisiert werden kann.
I bought this for my daughter's 17th birthday party but was worried it might be a bit daggy for the cool teens. It was not! They loved it and it kept them entertained for hours 🙂
We debuted this game at a 13 yo girl's birthday sleep over. They had a blast playing and role played well. Having the participants know their roles ahead of time with some idea of their lines/the parts they play is important; something I would do differently next time.
Das Spiel war eine schöne Krimi Geschichte und hat Spaß gemacht zu spielen. Der Aufbau war verständlich und die Rolllenbeschreibung hat meinen Gästen geholfen, ihren Charakter gut rüber zu bringen. Die einzelnen Spielrunden haben gut funktioniert. Einziger Kritikpunkt: Dadurch, dass der Mörder zufällig ausgelost wurde, es also jeder hätte sein können, konnte man den Mörder nur dadurch erkennen, was genau er/sie gesagt hat. Die Texte für die einzelnen Rollen waren aber nur minimal verschieden, wenn sie der Mörder bzw. nicht der Mörder waren. Die abschließende Raterunde, wer nun der Mörder war, geriet dadurch auch sehr zufällig und selbst der Spielleiter, der das Ganze Spiel noch am besten verstanden und durchschaut hat, hat der Mörder nicht erraten können. Es wirkte etwas willkürlich und die Spieler sind nur mit viel Glück auf den wahren Mörder gekommen.
This game was so fun and easy to play. There was plenty of room for improvising. It’s so nice that you can play it again with a different mix of characters and a different murderer. We had a lot of fun!

Had an amazing time playing!
We used the Broadway murder mystery for a small gathering and we loved the replay value. It worked well even with a mix of confident and quieter players. The 4-14 players version suited us well. The theme helped even the quiet players join in.
pretty good
Loved this Broadway murder mystery. It was easy to make a full evening around it. It was easy to pause between rounds for food. The 4-8 players version suited us well.
My daughter chose this for her 17th brithday party to play with her friends, and they had a blast. The instructions are clear and easy. She was able to DM as well as play, and they had a blast. Highly recommend!!
So much fun. We chose the Broadway murder mystery and it was easy to make a full evening around it. We added a playlist and some simple decorations.
We had a lovely night with the Broadway murder mystery. We made a few notes before playing and that made it easier. The printable materials helped us keep everything organised. We would definitely build another evening around one of these.
Made a great party for my 15 year old daughter and friends!
The team who we got our game off was really helpful I'd recommend them, great customer service
Did this on Halloween with my daughter’s 8th grade drama club friends. They had fun and liked the theater theme. Maybe I missed it, but it would be nice to be able to have a kit sent to you. The digital is nice, but it was A LOT to print out. The story was good and the materials were thorough. It takes a little preparation and reading ahead of time for the host so they know how to “run” the game, but it works! For people looking to do this with the “younger” end of the age range suggested, I DID have to edit Wanda Bee’s part in all the guides as she was having an affair with the director. I changed it all to “dating” the director. It still works perfectly without making a 14 year old play a character that is sleeping around. That would have been very awkward. It would be fine for adults though.
