Great fun and we'll put together
Had a great night thanks to this game. Everything is included and the cards/props are high quality. Requires a bit of reading up, but the instructions are clear and it's good fun. 3 endings included so I can use it for a further two parties, which makes it excellent value for money. I would highly recommend it.

Arrived in very poor condition
Arrived with seals broken,no packaging and address label stuck to box lid..unable to send as a gift.Had obviously been used before as envelope inside was broken and unsealed. Hopefully the replacement will be new and packaged intact.

Clearly previously opened
A shame to see already opened, hence rating. Checked contents luckily all there.

Great fun but depends on your guests as to how successful an evening it is.
The media could not be loaded. I picked this murder mystery set up for my sister since I know she does host occasionally some of these evenings. I think a lot of how good this is going to be is dependent on the people you're inviting and that participation.With this particular game if you call this again you basically have like a set up pack and Finale pack and then three sort of murder mystery packs. You then have the option to choose one of the red yellow or green what they call ending packs.The kit is quite comprehensive in terms of what you get in there so you do get obviously the host instructions you get sort of name the characters sort of name badges, police reports, detective notes, etcWithin each Ending pack there are four different rounds of clues these could be notes written letters fingerprints etc. There is also a clever smart feature built into a few of the cards by way of a QI code which you scan into your mobile device and then you get the evidence information given to first hand in sort of real time. Which I think is a really clever option since it brings the whole thing more to life. Sadly, this is limited in number and it would’ve been great if there were more.For the end, it’s sort of like cluedo where you get the three envelopes with the murderers details in which is the finale of the game. As a fun piece of additional fun, there are also awards for best acting best detective and best costume.As I mentioned at the beginning this is very much about how engaged the people are in playing the game, van necessarily the kit itself. Although clearly it is an important part but you can have the best game with not best people playing it and it’s not be a successful evening.If you go to the online website, you can send out personalised character invite cards out by email. That way each of you guests has an idea who they are going to be and dress accordingly (if they wantThis does look to be a decent quality and well thought out Murder Mystery set. Unfortunately, I could find any options to purchase additional “Clue & Murderer” packs to add to it.I’m just hoping that my sister invites me round to play this properly, as it does look a piece of fun and interesting piece of entertainment.I hope you found this review & photos interesting, informative, and useful. Thanks for reading.

Looks very professional but no instructions included
Opened the box to read instructions before hosting and there are none in the box. The qr code links to nothing so can’t work this game out. Pretty disappointed

Good quality and an entertaining story
A murder mystery is an absolute classic when it comes to dinner party entertaining and this kit gives you all you need to do it three times. I checked it out to see if I could figure out whodunnit.The package contains a series of cards for each of the characters, cut out cardboard parts for key items like murder weapons, spaces to make notes and for the story. All of the items seem like reasonable quality cardboard that'll last for the three passes. You can play with up to 13 people including the host, who won't know what's up and with a minimum of 3. As the host there's quite a bit to get your head around initially but once going it's a fun and entertaining story with the three endings.Overall then if you're looking for something different for your next dinner party this is a good way to bring a bit of murder mystery to the fun.

A really good murder mystery!
As a family we have played a lot of Murder mysteries over the years, and one of the worst things is that when you have played them once, your money is spent. To be fair - you just add that to the cost of the food and that is your night out. The big breakthrough about this game is that you can play it 3 times - 3 different endings - and this makes it very good value indeed.The characters are good and their unique "special characteristics" add a lot to the fun delivered. The outstanding feature for me was that the characters are not rude and this can be played within the family - you have no worries about having to flirt with your family!Some of the clues can be read out to you from the supporting website and a Spotify playlist is arranged for each game. Simply invite the number that you need - a minimum of 1 organiser and 5 guests, but you can have up to 12 if you want (above 6 people is not necessary for any of the games).For me this was a game that you could play with anyone; everyone got into character really well and "awards" are provided for you to give to the winner and the best dressed and the best actor too.We had a great night!I would say that this works best if you have 3 courses of food and a separate room for the crime to take place in, but it can be adapted to any situation really.This offers great value because of the three games you can get out of it, and if you invite friends who are fun, you can't help but enjoy it! I love it!

Very thorough and Well thought out
This was such fun to play with friends. All the materials, clues, songs, instructions, suggestions, etc we’re so well thought out. Definitely a good “Murder Mystery for beginners set.” I had to go thrifting for some fun set pieces to make the place look more like a ship, but that was the fun part. The fact that you can play 3 times with different results means we will be inviting other friends over for round 2 sometime! Such a blast.

Games Have Been Opened & Appear Used
I have ordered this game twice as a birthday gift for a relative. Both times the box arrives with the factory seal broken, envelopes opened & taped shut. I did not order a used game to give as a gift. Not only does it not look appropriate to give to someone, who knows if everything is intact. Called the Talking Tables number & left a message, waiting for a return call.

Ordered and paid for the new game - got a used one instead
Seals were broken on game so no way to tell what may or may not be missing. Envelopes inside had been opened.

Sent me a used/damaged product
This game arrived used. Im annoyed because it’s supposed to be a gift, I'm obviously not going to wrap up this item with ripped envelopes, broken seals, and dirty, wrinkles envelopes.The worst part is that Im supposed to deliver the present tomorrow and can’t get another one in time to deliver.
