My holiday office party was a blast
I ordered the Party Ready Pack for my office holiday party this year and everyone had a blast! We had 20 people so it was the perfect number. I would recommend the host go over the forensic report a few times before the party and just give a summary to your guests because it's a lot to take in at first. About half our group guessed the murderer so it wasn't too easy or too hard

Great cast - fun for our small work group party!
We just might make this a holiday tradition. Our small group and our significant others had a great time at the Snowflake Lodge!

Absolutely Perfect
I was nervous hosting my first murder mystery party but this company helped me pull off an amazing event for my birthday!! Everything was so easy to plan and facilitate. I had about 20 guests and they all came ready to play with ugly sweaters and suggested props. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone even considering it. I wish I had used the pre-game feature, but everything was perfect even without it. I chose to do appetizers throughout the night instead of a sit down dinner and that too worked out really well. Only one person was actually able to solve the mystery. Overall the game was excellent and we all had a great time!

So much fun!! More than expected!!
We had 27 players. I purchased the expansion kit as well. I only assigned 2 players to the news crew from the base game. You could have more but based on my group this worked best. Also you don’t have to use all of them. I selected the best characters to match what fit my group. The ages ranged from 18-52. We had adults and adult kids. It was harder to solve than I thought. Only three people out of group guessed correctly- adding this information to let you know it’s not cheesy and easy!! Lol. Everyone wants to make this an annual event. We loved it’n

10 Birthday Party Success!
This was so much fun. I was a little worried that is was going to be a bit much for 9,10 and 11 year olds... but they did amazing! They got into it and loved all the gossiping and really sat down and tried to figure out who did it! I would recommend this to anyone who has an out going bunch of people. Loved every minute of this!

Fun night
The murder mystery was a fun time for my family and friends. Printing and putting the items together took some time but it was well worth it.

Love it!!
We had a lot of fun. I loved how the murderer didn’t even know it was them until the end. Would purchase another one.
