Once Upon a Murder | Boxed kit

A fun fairytale themed murder mystery party for 7-12 guests, ages 14 to adult due to difficulty. Expansion packs include up to 40 unique players. This game may be played as all-female (with only the required players and omitting the optional males) or coed with all of the optional players included. See the host character list of the main game to see the available characters in the 12 player game. There are more character lists for the bigger kits below. 

Spoil yourself, and choose the party ready option above, and our dedicated staff will fold and slip your clue cards for rounds one, two, and three into the envelopes to prevent you from seeing spoilers on the round cards. Without the party ready option selected, you will have some assembly required with your kit and there will be spoilers upon opening the kit and viewing the rounds 2 and 3 clue cards.

The downloadable version is not seamless with this boxed set and therefore, does not come with this purchase. You'll have everything you need with the boxed set.

Mystery Synopsis:

Once upon a time, there was a faraway land called the Enchanted Realm. The people of the land got along harmoniously for many centuries... that is, until Queen Black gained control of the Silver Tree Forest. It was not long before happy endings turned into nightmares, as the ruling Kingdom of Gullyshire suffered repeated attacks, and the villains began to gain control. The mystic mountains filled with nefarious monsters and were no longer safe, and wicked witches took over the charmed forest.

Queen Black has shocked the realm and has invited all of the territories to the Dark Castle of the Silver Tree Forest to sign a peace treaty. She may have evil intentions, but nonetheless, you have been invited by Queen Black, and this is where your story begins.
