For a night of glam rock, pop icons, Mogwai scandals, vampire bats, and Rubik's cubes, this is the game for you! Warning: this game is lighthearted and not to be taken seriously, as it's all about the Radical Eighties with a fun spin on things to make your players laugh all night!

Murder Mystery Synopsis:

Polly Abdool is throwing a totally tubular VIP album release party for her best friend and international pop icon, Debbie Gribson! Hosted at an exclusive Beverly Hills hotspot, this glitzy soirée is in honor of Debbie’s brand-new album Eclectic Youth! But that’s not all. Debbie is also launching a signature fragrance line by the same name, which is essentially glamour, gossip, and glitter in a crystal bottle. The guest list? Bodacious. It's stacked with Hollywood elites, chart-topping icons, and fashion-forward yuppies who will kill the red carpet with gnarly shoulder pads, hair teased to the max, and stilettos sharp enough to slice through a glam band power ballad. And guess what? You received an invitation! But as you scan the guest list, you want to gag yourself with a spoon.  A few names spark more dread than delight. Old flames. Bitter rivals. Two-faced posers with killer cheekbones and sharper tongues. Whatever! You’re going, anyway. This is where your story begins.
