Mystery synopsis Dr. Larry Doom - the heir of the Doom estate and famous chemist - led a troublesome life full of misery, lies, and deceitful practices. After receiving some bad news from his doctor that he wasn't as healthy as a horse anymore, he reflected upon the past and of all of the evil things he had done to those close to him over the years. In a fit of regret, he begged Miss Crimson - his niece and the only one left in his good graces - to host a dinner for him at the Doom Mansion so he could resolve all the differences with those he had wronged in the past. The guests accepted the invitation and the colorful cast of characters arrived at the mansion in style and ready to enjoy a delectable dining experience and to hear what Dr. Doom had to say. However, to everyone's shock, Dr. Doom was found murdered and the guests quickly rallied together to investigate whodunit, their motive, and how they did it before the police arrived. The guests did take a few breaks from the investigation to dine on a tasty dinner and play some amusing games as investigations are hard work! Then, while relaxing and savoring some yummy hot chocolate and desserts, they came to a final conclusion of the mysterious death of Dr. Doom. It appeared to the group that Dr. Doom probably should have made amends with at least one of the guests long ago. The moral of the story is...never waste time turning your enemies into friends as it could end up being a deadly mistake!
In addition to the fun traditional old mansion murder mystery party, there are fun bonus games! -

Great fun for a family vacation!
What I love about this mystery party set is that the host can participate in the mystery if you have someone to help you set it up ahead of time. I had a friend organize the clues for me before we left for vacation so that everyone was able to participate. Another thing I love is that the themes are so family-friendly without being boring at all! And there is room for improvisation but still enough script to have a direction.
But what I love the most is that, if you have a player that you do not want to be the "bad guy," then you simply assign him/her one of the optional roles. My younger brother (24yo) has Down syndrome, so I was unsure if he would be able to play his role alone, but because we all went into the game knowing he wasn't the bad guy, we were able to relax and help him a lot more without fear of ruining the secrets. My brother played the butler, which was perfect because he was rather quiet the whole time. Great GREAT feature! (This would work for a child who wanted to participate as well.)
The one thing that I did not like was the the host's instructions are a little confusing. Again, I played a role (Ms. Crimson, who is the dinner party host in the story too) while also hosting the mystery party, so I did not read ahead before the day of the party. That could have had an effect, but I was very confused, which caused us all to break out of character a couple times.
Overall, great product!! Unknown on Aug 7th 2021 -
