Great Game
This is my second game from this company. It is a ton of fun. Everything you need is in the box. You can also get extra clues online if you are stumped. It took two of us about 3 hours with dinner break in the middle. I can't wait to try more of them.

Perfect Group Game
Played with my family on Thanksgiving and it kept us busy! We had a ball! Great game to play with at least 4+ who think they can solve cases.

Great, but a bit too easy
Me and my wife don't have a lot of experience with mysteries outside of video games, and while we did have a lot of fun playing this for two to three hours, found it a bit too easy. Out of the five "people of interest", it was very obvious that only two actually mattered. Furthermore, hints were repeated multiple times in various pieces of evidence, so sometimes we'd stop to discuss a deduction we made only to have it said explicitely to us by another piece of evidence later. So it felt a bit like the game was doing the thinking for us. But overall, it was fun piecing everything together and figuring out whodunnit. The various pieces of evidence and documents are all themed appropriately and really made us feel like we're solving a cold case murder, it's just that I wish it was a bit more challanging. Also, since we didn't need to write or change anything about the product, we can regift it ourselves. So yeah.

Fun, LOTS of reading
I purchased this game to play with my family on vacation, a group of 6 adults and 2 kids (8 &12). I didn't really know what to expect, I'd seen these games and heard of the idea before, but no one really went into detail on how the game is played and I think I had unrealistic expectations. The whole game is reading a story, in many different formats. We spent about 3 hours, and 90% of that was just reading aloud the notes, crime reports, witness reports, and news articles. You are given a lot of information and it can be overwhelming, but it is helpful to make your decision. Honestly, we didn't actually start enjoying this until the last 30 minutes or so and still couldn't get everyone on the same page, so we just went with the majority guess. Honestly, I think we would have enjoyed playing other board games or watching a crime show/movie more, but you never know until you do right? The kids lost interest within the first 10 minutes, so I definitely wouldn't recommend for anyone young or who has trouble focusing. I think this would be better for 1 or 2 people, who know what they're getting into and are willing to take the time to read everything in depth. I do kind of wish there was a way you could get multiple potential endings/murderers, because now I just have this game I played once and I can't really play again, but maybe I'll gift it to someone else. Overall, the price wasn't bad and they did a great job of organizing valuable information in a realistic fashion - it just wasn't for me personally.

Perfect Mystery
Have to say this was well thought out and creatively put together. If you're a lover of Crime/Law/Mystery books or movies, you'll enjoy solving this mystery. It was fun, not too easy and was definitely worth the price.

I like murder mystery investigation games like this so this is the 3rd brand I am giving a shot (the other two being Hunt A Killer and Unsolved Case Files). Although I have yet to give this a play through, I thought I’d give a quick overview feedback - packaging is as good as the other two brands if not better. The material inside feels and looks well made as well. Only thing is I’d hope the creators include an inventory list of all the items that should be in the box so ‘investigators’ can check to make sure there is no missing ‘evidence’. Price wise, this definitely beats the other two brands but I’d need to have played the entire game before I could say if what the other two brands lose in terms of price point they make up in quality.

My partner and I really have enjoyed this case file. He usually doesn’t like games like this but he’s actually been really invested into this haha. I can’t wait to play the rest of it out, it’s so cool and interesting!

Bought for a group of teenage girls to complete and although they didn’t manage to complete within the timeframe they were given they really enjoyed it! There is a lot in the pack to go through so would definitely keep you entertained for a while!
