Loved This!
Loved this! I was so impressed! We did this at a little group party, some were kids and they had fun too! The younger ones enjoyed the texts and emails the most feeling like they were getting all the tea lol I feel like if you're really paying attention the answer is definitely there, it's not out of the question, not convoluted- there is a definitive answer to find, while challenging enough in the way anybody really could have done it because anyone's motive is plausible to varying degrees. I especially enjoyed the fact that I could look freely through anything and everything as much as I wanted to because there was no solution and even no clues or hints in the box- those have to be looked up separately online (and it's very easy to lookup - they give you the website for clues and a separate web page for the solution on a page stuck to the front so that you can't miss it, and also can't accidentally get the solution while looking for a hint- that in itself, having two separate web pages, is very thoughtful). You literally just open the box and have at it which, for me, I enjoy the most. I find it more immersive and less confusing than the "now open envelope 3 but don't glance at envelope 4 too directly yet or the plot is ruined" format. 10/10 will recommend and buy again.

Perfect for a friend get together game night!
I've had this game for a little while. I finally got the chance to play it over the holidays. It was super fun. Wasn't too hard to play. Was great for a group of friends to sit and think. I absolutely recommend this game for a friend's fun night!

Fun Family time
Family worked together to solve the mystery, there are plenty of papers to pass around for a large group to always have something for everyone to look at and assist in the clue gathering. For the clues there was lots of information and it was great to talk amongst the group to shift through all of the content to find the crucial clues. Some members missed the inclusion of puzzles like a coded message. The crime report also felt incomplete like there was random items that weren't listed belonging anywhere. After the family solved the murder we also looked at the hints and found them amusing as well. They don't give you answers but feel like a humorous guiding partner.

Fun family activity
Fun activity for our whole family. Box was filled with a variety of evidence to sort through. We appreciated the online files as a help if needed and used them to confirm our suspect before going to the final answer. It took the 8 of us about 3 hours to solve.

Too easy
The set up cute. The game was fun and creative. Are only caveat is that it was too easy. Right in the beginning my daughter and I guessed who it was before reading all the evidence. Because it was so obvious, we thought there was no way it could be the person we thought it was.

Great Game!
I enjoyed playing this. I decided to do it myself and was able to solve it quite quickly. Constructed well and clearly. The evidence and statements all felt real and very well thought out.

Experiência sensacional
Comprei para jogar no halloween com um grupo de amigos, fizemos toda a temática da festa em torno do jogo e foi realmente muito divertido, o jogo é totalmente imersivo, com itens e provas, testemunhos para ler. É demorado mas vale a pena, me senti uma verdadeira investigadora, o debate depois com os amigos para avaliarmos as opções e culpados, sensacional! O jogo é totalmente dependente da compreensão do inglês, são muitos textos e sem entender não dá pra jogar, mas um dos amigos que estava conosco usou bastante a ferramenta de tradução de textos em imagens que o celular tinha, então foi bem possível. Uma nota 10!

It was okay
It was alright luckily in English cause I was worried in which language it will arrive We solved in a little over an hour, 4 people The murdered was a bit obvious and we didn't wanna think that it was the most obvious answer but the process was kinda fun
