Murder Party Kits makes printable murder mystery party games for groups of 8 to 20.
We started by reading hundreds of reviews of the kits people already buy. The same complaints came up again and again: a case nobody could solve, a game that broke when two guests cancelled, quiet players left with nothing to do, and a host stuck with a pile of confusing pages. Our games are built around fixing those.
- Every headcount works. The first eight characters carry the case. Guests 9 to 20 join in a fixed order with their own schemes, so no clue rests on someone who didn't show.
- The case is fair. We check each game at every headcount from 8 to 20 so that everything needed to name the killer is in the room by the final vote.
- Everyone has something to do. Sealed envelopes after each murder, side goals, play money, action cards, and ghosts who keep playing after they're killed.
- The host has a script. A minute-by-minute timeline with every line to read aloud, and the host can still play.
Every game goes through a test party before it goes on sale. If something doesn't work at the table, we fix it first.
