Our group had a great time doing this - the host definitely needs to spend some time getting to know the game to make sure it runs smoothly but that is expected with a murder mystery! Would highly recommend :)

I did this murder mystery for my 30th and it was so much fun! I actually had more than 20 people plan to come, so I reached out the the GrimmSisters and they sent me extra copies of character sheets to help me out! They responded very quickly and had amazing customer service. I definitely recommend!!

This is the 4th murder mystery party we’ve bought by these sellers and it was a load of fun. There’s a ton of potential in this game to really make the most of it. We had a bbq with lawn games, a bracelet making station, Polaroid photos, etc. to really emulate a summer camp experience. After supper, we played the game, and then we had a bonfire.

The characters for this game were fun, punny, and 80s themed which was a real delight. Such a fun experience and my friends all had a blast. We had people present who had done 5 murder mystery parties and people who had done none; so there was a real range, and it was beginner friendly while not being boring. Looking forward to buying another game from the sisters in the future!

Perfect game and theming for our Halloween Party. They thought of everything. Quick and easy access. All the materials needed are printed out at your home. There is a step by step guide that helps with planning and running the show that night. Once you see all the materials, it is easy to follow. I had a question and the sistersgrimm responded right away with helpful ideas. You will not be disappointed.

FAQ's

How Do Digital Downloads Work?

Q: How Do Digital Downloads Work?

A: Our murder mystery games are available as instant digital downloads. You can print them at home or at your local print shop. 

For an eco-friendlier option, you can also play using mobile phones – simply email the character sheets and instructions to your guests. 

But for the full immersive experience, we recommend printing out the game materials. We also offer a selection of boxed murder mystery games that come pre-printed and ready to play (currently shipping within the UK only).

Are Your Murder Mystery Games Easy to Set-Up and Play?

Q: Are Your Murder Mystery Games Easy to Set-Up and Play?

A: Absolutely! Each game comes with a comprehensive (though not overwhelming) host guide that walks you through every step of setting up and running your murder mystery party. 

Every player receives a character sheet with their dialogue and any secret information they need to conceal from the other suspects! 

As long as you follow the host guide, you'll find our games a delight to play!

Are your Games Suitable for Kids?

Q: Are your Games Suitable for Kids?

A: Our games are packed with plenty of tongue-in-cheek puns, but we never use crass or offensive language. It’s all good clean fun (bloody murder aside). 

We believe our games are suitable for younger players who do wish to get involved (down to your discretion, of course). 

If you want to throw a murder mystery party for your child and their friends, we recommend the Magical Murder Mystery Game – which is a Harry Potter inspired mystery suitable for both children and adults (Aged 10+).   

Got Another Question? 

Feel free to ping us an email and we’ll get back to you as soon as we can.   

Can the host play?

Q: Can the host play?

A: Yes, all our games are written so that every character and player can be the murderer, including the host. See our host guide for details on how to select the murderer so that no one knows who it is including the host!
