Bloodworth Falls is an isolated town plagued with scandals. The townsfolk bicker in the streets, and many believe the local government is corrupt. Nevertheless, the mayor is hosting a mysterious masquerade ball in the old Bloodwood Castle. The tickets to the event have sold out in record time. The townspeople are curious to find out why the mayor would put effort into doing something positive in this hopeless town of gloom. Anticipation for the event hangs thickly in the air, and many are already hunting for the perfect mask. You are worried what will happen on this night when toxic people come together. You are alarmed, as you didn't purchase your ticket - it was placed in your mailbox in an unmarked envelope. Somebody wants you there, but you don't know why. This is where your story begins.

This game was fantastic for a party of 30 people. I purchased expansion pack one and was worried about characters like magician’s assistant and production assistant but those characters had there own clues and seemed happy enough! The game got everyone from different social circles talking, helped people get out of their comfort zones and was a massive hit. The game even comes with a suggested menu and a bunch of unrelated mini games too. Chloe Jane on Jan 21st 2021
This was our 5th kids mystery party and it was great. Kids always have fun and the kit is easy to follow. Unknown on Jan 20th 2021
We did this on New year's Eve. There was 10 of us male and female and we had so much fun. It was kinda easy to figure out who was the victim. That's the only bad thing I could say. They thought of everything and made planning so easy and fun. Danielle Schmunk on Jan 4th 2021
We had 9 guests playing who really got into the roles they were given. Every one of them was a first timer for live role play. I wished I had recorded some of the different interactions as they were legit. At one point I was afraid the neighbors might call the police because of the conversations that took place outside! We lit up the back yard and staged different seating arrangements there. We also rearranged the living, dining and family rooms to encourage movement and “private” conversations without people being on top of each other. Jeanna on Nov 22nd 2020
