Mystery Party Questions
What are they?
It is a game that you play with many people in a small area. Guests are given a character to play which comes with costume ideas. The game can be run along with a dinner or just snacks. During each round, something happens. Guests receive clue cards to ask each other questions and mingling is encouraged. Usually after the first or second round, the mystery/murder occurs. The guests then spend part of the evening playing through the rounds by asking questions given, taking notes and having fun.
It may sound like a game of cards but it isn’t. The game is interactive. You don’t have to sit at the table either, you can move about the room and take turns talking to people. Mingling about makes it harder for other guests to hear what you are asking from your clue cards. The game can be played around the table but may require a bathroom or separate room for a murder victim to get dressed up in.

How man people can play?
A minimum of 7 is required and depending on the game, as many as 50 may be able to play. They can be done in teams or as separate characters. I recommend separate as it’s more fun for the guess as they get to have their own clue cards instead of having to share them in a group.

They list ages according to difficulty. Average games are ages 14+ but there are games for younger children ages 5+.

What's the difference between "Our Parties" and "Your Parties?"
With "Our Parties," we host the event as a business, we book the location and caterer and we make money off the ticket sales. These parties are setup, planned and run how we want them to go. We sell by ticket.
With "Private Functions," we are still there to host it, but you can play as the host if you want. We still setup the game area, but you setup the food and location (unless you've paid us to do so). You pay us a flat rate which covers time and supplies, in addition to $3+/person (depends on game - most are $3), and $0.30/km and any expenses we may expect to incur like a hotel stay if it's a ways to drive, etc. A deposit is required to book a date and is non-refundable. Most games cost us $150+ and we are unable to return them if you change your mind. Deposit depends upon the game, destination, etc.

Do they have to involve murder?
No. There are plenty of games that don’t include murder, but the murder ones are more enjoyable with the ghost.

Are the murder ones violent?
No. For props, we place a plastic sheet on the ground with what looks like blood splatter (Halloween prop). We then place a “chalk” outline with tape on it and place this on the ground. The victim dresses as a ghost and carries a sign that tells what happened to them. Other than through clue cards and talk, there is nothing violent or gory (nothing detailed, “I was stabbed by XX with a knife in the kitchen”). You wouldn’t want a 5 year old playing though.
