WHAT ARE MURDER MYSTERY CASE FILES?
Murder mystery case files let you solve a murder mystery by reading interrogations and looking at realistic clues. You can easily download everything in minutes and begin your investigation immediately. There are no costumes, props or acting involved. Murder mystery case files are basically detective games that you can play solo or for an amazing date night.
Unlike a murder mystery dinner party – where guests dress as characters and need to act – a printable murder mystery case file requires no costumes, no acting, and no advance preparation. You download the PDF, print out the pages at home, and begin your investigation immediately. Clues and hints are provided through an online link so you can get help without spoiling the ending.
Print Mysteries case files work for playing solo, for date nights, and for small group game nights. Each case includes detailed character interrogations, coded documents, newspaper clippings, and other evidence designed to make you feel like a real detective.

We played Murder at Tulip King Hotel on a rainy Saturday and it took us over four hours. The coded messages in objective three and four were really tricky – we had to use the hints. Absolutely worth every cent.
Mary L.
My husband and I do a date night mystery every month now. We’ve done 3 of the Print Mysteries case files and they keep getting better. The evidence feels genuinely real.
Darla
We played with a group of four friends. It took just under three hours. Everyone was convinced of a different suspect right up until the final reveal. Brilliant writing, and brilliant clues.
Simon Q.
I bought this as a solo activity on a long weekend and was completely hooked. I got the killer wrong the first time but it gives you chances to go back through all the evidence again and figure out the right one.
Rachel
We absolutely loved playing this murder mystery at home on our date night! It was challenging and made us feel like real detectives.
