Types of Murder Mystery Kits
Murder Mystery Case Files
These are relaxed games that a small group of people can enjoy without needing to dress up or pre-plan anything. These are printable games that provide everything you need for a suspenseful evening. All the evidence, clues, puzzles and riddles are provided on your sheets. The game is split into objectives. You must complete each objective in order to proceed to the next one, slowly leading you towards the killer until you finally find out who did it. This means that you’ll never wonder if you’re on the right track or not. It’s the best way to take part in an unsolved detective story without breaking your budget. To avoid spoilers – the answers to objectives (and clues in case you get stuck) are easily accessed through a scannable QR code (or link) on your sheet. You can also look at the main menu of this website to see these clues.
Is It Like a Board Game?
Although there is a little overlap with some boardgames such as the whodunnit called Cluedo – murder mystery case files are more similar to escape rooms than anything else. There are clues you need to follow and puzzles to solve in order to complete each objective. It’s an immersive detective game full of suspense, and misdirects. It’ll provide hours of entertainment that will test your logic, and aptitude for solving crimes.
How Many People Can Play?
These games are designed for 1-6 people. They are fun to complete solo, as well as on date nights. And can be even more fun with friends. It’s great fun sharing ideas, theories and potential suspects.
How Long Does a Game Take?
On average, a game should take you about 2 hours to complete. Some people have taken up to 4 hours to complete it, but it all depends on if you’ve played these types of games before.
Murder Mystery Dinner Party Kits
Our printable kits contain everything you need to entertain guests at your next dinner party. Unlike box games, you don’t need to pay any postage or shipping costs. You simply need to download and print out everything. This is a group game for 8 players to 20 players. These are large scale themed mysteries that require you and your guests to dress up, and take on a character’s persona. These need to be prepared in advance. All characters are gender-neutral so that any of your friends can play any character. The first 8 characters are called primary characters and are required in order to play the game. If you invite more people, then the remaining 12 secondary characters can be used. This type of flexi party lets you customize the size of your parties.
What Is Provided in the Murder Mystery Party Kit?
- Instructions – everything you need to know to successfully run a party
- Character Sheets – info about every character’s persona, talking points, secrets, outfits, etc
- Evidence – the clues that you will find after each of the 3 “murders”
- Extras – additional items to enhace the experience (award certificates, name tags, voting sheets, and invitations)
How to Host a Murder Mystery Party
If this is your first time hosting a murder mystery, we’ve got you covered. Your printable kit will give you all the info you’ll need to successfully throw your party, as well as some tips and tricks to make it even more exciting. We also have a full guide on our website, if you want an in-depth breakdown of what’s involved in running a murder mystery dinner for the first time.
How To Play
Once you’ve downloaded the mystery kit, you will need to choose which of your friends will play each of the characters in the game. This choice will influence their dress-code and personality. Once the party starts, there will a series of 3 “murders” that take place. After each one, you will find a number of clues. It’s up to everyone to use these clues, as well as information they’ve discovered from chatting to each other, to find out who the killer is. Every player also has at least one secret that is provided on their character sheet. Each player will need to try to figure out the secret of every other character. There are no scripts to follow. I’ve found that letting friends improv their lines leads to lots of funny moments.
Perfect For Every Occasion
Our murder mystery game kits can be used for dinner parties, birthday parties, xmas parties, team building exercises, or any other event you would like to hold. Both adults and teens can enjoy these party games at home.
