Most kits are designed for 6 to 12 players, but larger groups can team up and share character roles.

Our kits are designed with adults in mind and often include themes like murder, mystery, flirtation, and deception. For family-friendly or teen-friendly versions, look for kits specifically labeled “All Ages”.

Not if you don’t want to, but over-the-top theatrics are highly encouraged! Each character has a backstory and objectives. Whether you're a wallflower or a scene-stealer, you’ll have a blast uncovering secrets and solving the crime.

Not at all. Our kits are designed to be plug-and-play, with simple instructions, clear timelines, and printable materials. You don’t need any special skills — just a space, a group of willing suspects, and a sense of fun.

Yes! Most of our digital kits can be adapted for Zoom, Google Meet, or other video call platforms. We even include tips for hosting virtually.

Each game is designed for one full playthrough since the mystery gets solved. However, you can reuse it with a new group — just don’t spoil the ending!

Costumes aren’t required but are definitely part of the fun! Many kits include a theme (Roaring Twenties, Noir Detective, Haunted Hotel) with suggestions for dressing the part. Bonus points for commitment!

Glad you asked, self! First,  our online murder mysteries, that you can play on your device, are a new innovative format. They include really fun extras like music and sound FX to make your hosting experience great and easy-to-follow. Second, we put a lot more love into these mysteries than the competition. They all offer like 50 options. Does it sound like they're putting a lot of time and love into each? Like each character is designed to be really fun to play? Our kits have all been tested in front of real audiences, and specially adapted for these kits. And then tested on real groups again. Competitors leave everything generic, so the roles could fit anyone. But we've learned from live hosting thousands of shows, that guests playing colorful characters, sometimes real historical figures. It's precisely because it doesn't fit them in real life that it's more fun! We pack a ton of fun and spicy scandal into our mystery parties. We kind of hope there's a little too much going on, because it means that first and foremost, guests are having a great time.
