Murder
A body. A house full of suspects. Reconstruct the timeline before the morning paper runs the wrong name.
100 unsolved cases. One impostor at the table. Netflix has no idea what's coming.
Three episodes in and someone's on their phone. The board game collected dust at Christmas. The dinner party went home at 10:30.
Something has to give.
Your partner is watching it. You're scrolling. Nobody is laughing.
Someone gets competitive. Someone gets quiet. The night ends at 9:47.
You love them. You also can't remember the last time the table felt alive.
Each case is a folder of statements, photos, and reports β written so every player at the table sees something different. One of you is hiding something. The rest are figuring out who.
β± Launch week pricing. Goes back to $33.90 on Monday.
Every case in the vault belongs to one of three desks. You'll know which one your group plays best after the second night.
A body. A house full of suspects. Reconstruct the timeline before the morning paper runs the wrong name.
Something is missing. Money, paintings, evidence, a person. The score is gone β and one of you held the door.
No body, no theft. Something stranger. A vanishing, a wrong message, a name nobody should know. Pull the thread.
Open a private room. Hand out a six-letter code. Up to six detectives sync into the same case β but every player gets a different envelope of evidence. Share what you want at the table. Hide what you must. Cast your vote when the third round closes.
Six-letter code, no signup for guests. Host invites; the table assembles.
Each role pulls a different evidence packet. The narrator is the cards, not a person.
Wins persist while the room exists. Reset the room β reset the score.
βWe were laughing so hard at midnight. We literally re-poured wine just to keep going. This unlocked something in our relationship I didn't know was there.β
βFriday game night used to die at 10. Now it dies at 2am because someone won't let the impostor walk free. 10/10.β
βI bought it for date night. We ended up calling our friends to come over. Now it's a Sunday thing. Best $18 I've spent on this relationship.β

No. Print if you like the feel of paper at the table β every case is laid out for it. Otherwise the same case runs in the browser, with role packets dealt automatically.
Two to six. Cases are tuned per player count β a four-person table sees a different evidence distribution than a six-person one. Solo play uses a guided walk-through mode.
Most cases hide one player whose role packet is a lie. Their job is to mislead the table without getting caught. The table wins if they identify both the impostor and the weapon. The impostor wins by surviving the vote.
Very Easy is 20β30 minutes. Impossible can run two hours over wine. Each case has a recommended length on the cover.
