Game Reviews

  • This is a really fun game. You get the opportunity to dress and act entirely Over the Top if you wish.

  • A truly " fangtastic evening" A brillant night with more laughs than I can mention. Great characters for people to really get involved with and have fun. The accents were amazing... Highly recommended a goulishly fun evening to be had by all :)

  • The characters in this game are great. They are easy to find costumes for, and everyone at my party really got into their characters. The motives were all clearly defined too. But if you want a real mystery to solve, this might not be the mystery for you. There wasn't a lot in the way of clues that clearly eliminated certain characters or clearly led to the real murderer. But the party was still tons of fun!!

  • I picked this one because I loved the characters! They were great and even the shy people really got into it... Everyone loved it, it was well thought out, easy to follow instructions, and again, the characters were the best! Thanks again! 3 stars!!!

  • The party went well... (The characters) were fun and easy to find outfits for. When we tried to guess who it was only two people figured it out. The person who played the murder did a fantastic job of lieing and misdircted people away from him. When it looked like we were going acuse him he redirected the attention to some one else's motive. Overall it was a lot of fun and we do want to do it again.

  • The game was excellent. I do wish that I had read everything beforehand though, as things got a bit muddled at one point. I was afraid that reading the documents beforehand would ruin my fun, but I am sure it wouldn't have! I will definitely be playing another of your games soon!
