Murder Mystery Games-what are they?
|
 |
|
Murder Mystery Store games are based around a dinner party (or buffet /
nibbles) and using clues, hints & tips the guests have to discover who
murdered the victim.
All the people present are suspects. Each character has a guide which
includes rules of the game and information on their character (so they can make
them as lifelike as possible). No previous acting experience is required, you
just need to have a fun approach to the game and be as elaborate or reserved as
you like!

Do I need to use my computer at the party?
|
 |
|
All you need your computer for is to download and print out the game. We
use the internet as a ‘shop’ so that you can browse through our selection of
exciting games, make secure payment and then print off and play the game. |

How many people can I invite?
|
 |
|
Each game gives recommendations on the number of characters required to
play each game. However, if you have less/more guests-for an additional charge
we can change the game to meet your exact requirements. Our lead-time for this
service is 21 days. For more details contact us at:

 |
What if I have too few / too many guests? |
 |
|
If you have 1 or 2 additional guests then they can still join in the
fun. We recommend that they take the part of the detective and reveal the clues
and question the suspects.
All the guests are integral to the game and have parts to play. If you
have guests unable to attend then it is important that you allocate the
additional characters to someone else so that they play two parts. A suggestion
for this is to avoid confusion they could maybe change hats to differentiate
between the suspects.
Alternatively, if you need several extra guests these are available for
an additional cost of $10 per couple.

I have downloaded the game and am ready to print-any hints & tips? |
 |
|
You can print the game out on normal printer paper.
Cards & Paper
By using card for the character guide covers, invitations and place
names, good quality paper for the clues and Avery address labels J8160 for the
name stickers you can make the game look better. All the margins are set up and
all you need to do is press ‘print’!
Printing
We recommend printing on ‘normal’ print setting-however on some printers
‘draft’ is sufficient & will be just as good print quality-and save on your
cartridge. No game is bigger than 6 MB, but as you have access to the download
area for 72 hours-you can print the game out in stages or all at once.
All our games have the option of mono or full colour printing-the choice
is yours!
Folding
We have provided small lines at
the sides of all the guides, invites etc-these show you where folds should be
made and if you line them up will ensure that the fold is straight!

you have any further questions please do not hesitate to email us:
