Which is the Best Game For You?

BOXED VS DOWNLOAD
We sell a range of boxed and downloadable games.

Boxed games are posted to you and contain everything you need to easily host your party, with full colour invitations and professionally printed materials. You can still use the online audio evidence and email invitations.

Downloadable games also contain everything you need to play but are supplied as PDFs that you can print yourself so they're great if you need a game in a hurry or want to save money. You'll get access to the files straight after placing your order, via a link the screen after checkout and also by email, and you can print them for your own personal use as many times as you like.

Note: Boxed games don't come with a free version of the download game and vice versa, and whilst we supply lots of free downloadable content on our websites for everyone, you'll need to buy replacement character sheets here.

NUMBER OF PLAYERS
We have games for 2 players all the way up to 20 and everything in between - even odd numbers. Most of our games are flexible so, for example, if you see a game for 6-14 players, you can play with 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 or 14 players! Remember to include the host(s) in your player numbers. Murderous Decisions games also let you add extra players which is great for unexpected guests - see the individual game descriptions for details.

AGE RATINGS
All our murder mystery kits are written for adults (18+) and often contain adult humour or innuendo. However, some games may also be suitable for tweens, teens or polite company at the host's discretion. As parents can have different opinions about what's suitable, please check the descriptions for more details or just contact us if you have any questions! Here are our recommendations if you're looking for 'clean' games:
