Birthday party, this was such a fun idea. It took some editing to perform online but it was an opportunity to have people from across the US join in.

It was fun! However, there was a part where the killer was meant to lie and others were supposed to call him out on it but no where was it said in any of the characters that this was a lie or fact. No one could call him out on it. So it made it very challenging and confusing.

Menu Highlights : Sous vide beef roast, mixed vegetables, mashed potatoes. Peanuts for snacks. Drinks included wine, whisky, mixed drinks... I don't recommend actual bathtub liquor.
Theme Highlights : I upped the ante for the scavenger hunt by replacing evidence tokens with real objects, and added escape room elements/puzzles to move it beyond a simple scavenger hunt. This turned out to be a great move. Also, look up the group Postmodern Jukebox on Youtube. They essentially became my "live" band on my TV. Fantastic! I printed retro signs for "The Cat's Meow". Cat statues from dollar store or thrift store as table ornaments. Keep lighting dim, but visible. Red curtains, and brown furniture. Also, despite being recommended against, it is possible to be the narrator and still play 1 specific character (Poppy). It helps with the immersion and there are no "disembodied" voices calling for the next act.

Got a bunch of my friends for a different get-together, and murder mystery was the choice. Overall consensus was that characters and story were fairly well written and put together. The variety of characters allowed people with different levels of intro/extroversion to all be involved. Entire evening took about 5 hours. Overall, everyone had a lot of fun.

My friends and I played this and absolutely loved it! I can’t believe its free, to be honest, as you get so much information and the characters and storyline are really well thought out. Everyone had a lot of fun getting into character, and they all interacted with each other perfectly thanks to the character prompts. Honestly, it was brilliant – a very, very good choice for your party!
