What is a murder mystery party?

A murder mystery party is a social dinner game where each guest plays a character at the scene of a crime, and the group works through the evidence to uncover who the killer is. Our games are built on famous real historical cases: you reopen the file, examine the scene, question each other, and name the killer the world once tried to. It runs from any screen with private roles sent to each guest's phone, so there is no prep, no printing, and no host experience needed.

How do you host a murder mystery party?

Pick a case, add your guests, and we assign each a character with a costume note. Send the invitations, then on the night open your host controls to deal the secret dossiers and play through the evidence to a final accusation. No prep and no acting experience needed.
