Mystery Synopsis
The presiding mayor of Gravestone, Arizona, must live in constant fear, for an unidentified killer has put bullet holes in the previous three sheriffs' backs. As a result, Gravestone is a lawless town run by a ruthless gang known as The Ranchers.
The famous Wylie Arp retired early as the sheriff of Duck City, Kansas. Wylie is one of the most feared lawmen in the United States - a legend in his own right. He left his life as a law enforcer and traveled west toward Gravestone with his brothers and friends with plans to sink his life savings into a business in what he believed to be a quiet and safe town. He intended to live the rest of his days stress-free as a civilian, but little did he know what awaited him in Gravestone.
The mayor caught wind of Wylie's arrival and immediately requested that Bella Starry invite the town for a celebration. The mayor hopes that Wylie and his brothers will consider taking over Gravestone's law enforcement. Moreover, with Wylie's untarnished reputation, the mayor hopes it will be easy for him to get The Ranchers under control - or, better yet - run them out of town.
Wylie has a few days to settle in and get a feel for the town before everyone gathers for an exciting night at the Gravestone Saloon. But, unfortunately, it will be impossible to prevent The Ranchers or other outlaws from attending the event, as the sheriff's station is collecting dust.
Not everything is doom and gloom, however. An elder in town has divulged that there are secret codes hidden around the city that will lead to buried treasure in the Gravestone Cave on the outskirts of town. Many folks are already hunting for these codes, but they have yet to be discovered. The hunt has kept the outlaws busy, which has been good for the town.
Nevertheless, Bella Starry has an agenda to keep everyone happy during the gathering with festive beverages, delicious food, and a few Wild West party games. So hopefully, everyone will keep their guns holstered and be on their best behavior. But the question is - will Wylie help Gravestone or slip away in the night to move on to the next town?
You plan to attend the celebration at the Gravestone Saloon. This is where your story begins.

Mother's Day Western Mystery was a blast
The whole family loved it. We had so much fun. The drinks were great. The games were a blast. We all had fun trying to solve the mystery.

So much fun with family
We played this game with 3 generations and everyone loved it! It's definitely more fun if you have props and western style dinner as the game suggests. We got through it per the timeline but could have extended play for a lot longer, since none of us are trained actors. Definitely recommend for wholesome fun and great memories

A great experience!
We enjoyed this for New Years! Took about three hours with most of the bonus games being played. The story line was fun and left a good enough room for fun improv. The murderer could have been concealed in the writing better since I caught a glimpse of it during the cutting out part. Also lining up all the character sheets to the same size to make cutting multiple pages together an option would have made this easier. BUT overall I’m rating this game perfect because it has a fun and entertaining storyline.

Excellent!!
We bought this with an extension pack for our 14 yr old daughter's birthday party. We had a total of 14 teens (age 13-18) participating. Everyone had a super time. It was well organized, easy to implement and worth every penny. Loved it!

Favorite!
We have done a mystery dinner every year for the past 6 years. This was our favorite! Well organized, executed and entertaining. I will go to this site again next year. We all dressed the part and had a prize for the winner. Very cool!

Awesome Party
We recently hosted this party at our home with a group of 20. All our our guests commented on what a fun evening it was. We all had a great time, good laughs and will surely be repeat customers soon!

Wild party in the Wild West
Everyone had a blast. The kit was well put together. It took a bit of time (as expected) in advance and I was able to put every together without seeing who the killer was. I will be a return customer.
