It is 1985, and after losing market share to sweeter competitors, Koko-Cola has revised its classic formulation and named the new beverage Best Cola. The CEO, Martin McFly, is hosting a huge bash to celebrate the release and has invited the Who’s Who of the entertainment industry to attend the party.
With so many Yes Men fluttering around Mr. McFly, he’s blinded to the reality that he is one of the most dreadful men in the world. He’s stolen ideas, broken hearts, slashed egos, and even kidnapped the beloved pets of foes when it suited him.
Alas, you are one of the ‘80s icons that received an exclusive invitation to this event. Mr. McFly has wronged you in the past but needs your fame to help launch Best Cola. It should be interesting how this all plays out. This is where your story begins.

We ordered this virtual team event for our quarterly team celebration and my team had a blast! We did the pre-games, dressed up, and put character backgrounds. We used Teams and it worked seamlessly. We did two of the bonus games in-between rounds and the entire event lasted 2 hours. We also took a team pic as a keepsake. I was the host and also got to participate which was a nice bonus. I recommend and would purchase additional virtual games from My Mystery Party. Unknown on Apr 15th 2022
I did this with my coworkers and they had so much fun making costumes and drinking their "Koko cola"! It was a great story, very safe for work, very fun, the games were great too. Loved it. We are going to do another one next month. Mandy Meindersma on Feb 11th 2022
We had a blast. This was easy to execute and fun! Unknown on Jan 10th 2022
While not the same as doing it in real life (people spent less effort on their costumes, we couldn't share a meal) this was still very good on zoom. The added videos and other game parts were great and added variety, and the story and characters were good. I've recommended it to friends and would definitely do another one.
