A Murder Mystery Game is an experience where each player actively plays the role of a different character. After you are provided background information, a murder occurs. Your goal: Figure out who is the murderer while convincing others you’re innocent. But be careful: there’s a murderer lurking among you. You’ll have to put the clues together to catch the murderer before you’re wrongly accused and eliminated from the game!

Exclusive access to our back office, which will allow you three months of unlimited access to your chosen Murder Mystery Game.

• Access to game rules, general knowledge all characters know, special knowledge specific to each character, clues, voting cards, diagrams of key scenes, and costume suggestions for applicable costume-themed games.
• Electronic tools to distribute game materials to participants. This allows for a paperless experience, meaning no materials are downloaded or printed.
• Automated invitations to be sent by email to your guests.
• Ability to play the game in person or host the game over a videoconference platform and play the game remotely.

To buy a game, follow these simple steps:

1. Browse our available games on this website’s homepage. Check out the game synopses, number of player characters, and video trailers.
2. Select your preferred game.
3. Select what version of the game (if applicable) you would like to purchase: standard or expanded package. Note that the decision should be based on the number of expected guests. You should target the same number of playing guests as characters, but you must have at least one player for each character in the game.

We try to price our games competitively. We want to build a mystery-loving community, so once you play a game (whether or not you were the purchaser), you become eligible to receive 10% off all future game purchases. Our website recognizes all returning players and automatically applies the 10% discount.

You will need one player for each character in the game. The number of characters varies depending on the game and whether you select the standard or expanded package, but it ranges from 5 to 10 characters. If necessary, two players can play one character “together.”

Yes, the host can play the game! Our website’s back office will guide all players through the game and distribute game information accordingly. With the website moderating the game, everyone at your party, including the host, can play the game without getting any inside information.

No, the murderer, victim, and story remain the same. That means the same group could not replay that specific game. You have two options. You can purchase another game with a completely different storyline and characters or replay the same game with another group. A returning player could play again and elect to be the murderer, as one gets no significant benefit from playing the game again if they are the murderer the second time.

For in-person games:

• All players will need a smartphone or other electronic device with online access to utilize the back office of our website during the game.
• You may wear a costume that matches your character in some game themes.

For games over videoconference platform:

• All players will need a smartphone or other electronic device to access the back office of our website to receive key game materials.
• You may wear a costume that matches your character in some game themes. Since you will be on a webcam, you can focus your costume from the chest up.
• All players will need two devices with internet access, one to play the game and one to meet virtually with other participants. You can choose your two devices between a smartphone, a tablet or a computer. Both devices must have an internet connection, while one must have a working microphone and web camera.

Most murder mystery games last between 1.5 to 3 hours. The time will vary depending on the number of players and how quickly players solve the mystery. But be ready to have your guests continue discussing and reliving the game after it officially ends.

Our Murder Mystery Games are generally recommended for ages 14 and above, as they can include mature themes or intricate plots. Please note that none of our games contain foul language or explicit sexual language.

No worries! We are fans of mysteries, but we don’t believe our gameplay should be a mystery! Our games are designed for both beginners and experienced players and hosts. The gameplay is straightforward, and detailed instructions and real-time guidance is constantly provided.

Because this format is digital products rather than physical products, we do not accept refunds or returns.

At the end of each round, the innocent character that receives the most votes is eliminated from the game unless that character correctly votes for the murderer in that round. Also, innocent characters can be eliminated from the game if they vote for any innocent character in three separate rounds. The murderer will lose the game when all innocent characters in the game vote for the murderer.

So, does that mean the fun ends for eliminated players? Not at all. They can silently listen in to the one-on-one meetings and privately meet with other players who were voted out of the game to try to solve the mystery.

You will gain access to the back office immediately after purchasing it. You will retain access to the back office for that specific game for two months from your purchase date.

You can determine whether these games are for you in various ways. We have included testimonials from other players. We have also included game synopsis and game trailers so you learn about the plot of each murder mystery game. Finally, we have provided free access to our Mini Mysteries on the main menu of our website, giving you a taste of our murder mystery writing.
