Book Reviews of The Murder-Mystery Party Kit (Miniature Editions Pocket Pack)
Book Review: Cheap entertainment
Summary: 3 Stars
This game is for 7 people comprising of six guests and one host (who guides the guests along but otherwise doesn't participate in the activities.) The guests consist of 3 male and 3 female roles.
The 6 nametag stickers are not stickers, but more like index cards.
Each guest booklet contains:
-background about the character
-quick description of how the character feels about the others
-intro to be read aloud
-phrase to be guessed during the charades phase (and an additional clue for the guest who correctly guessed the phrase)
-two clues to reveal during the meal
-"last seen the murder victim" clue
There's also a quick talent show after the meal, the winner of which gets an additional clue.
Entertaining overall. The fun arises more from player interactions and less from the really short scripts.
