5 Reasons You Should Host a Murder Mystery Game for Your Next Party
Murder Mystery Parties can be a fun, easy way to connect with your friends and family for a special occasion!
It can be challenging to think of a fun way to celebrate a birthday, anniversary, special occasion, or holiday. It can be stressful to plan a party where your guests have a great time, and you as the host can have fun too! Murder mystery games fit the bill for a fun, unique experience that your friends and family will talk about for weeks!
But what makes a good murder mystery game? There are so many varieties and styles out there, it can be difficult to know which one to choose. After hosting and writing murder mystery games for over a decade, we wanted to create a party experience that is easy to host and even easier to have fun! Here are 5 reasons you should choose a Foulplay murder mystery game for your next murder mystery party!
1. Creative Murder Mystery Party Themes
Our themes are inspired by our love of history, pop-culture, and creative storytelling. We love creating a murder mystery party environment where your guests can choose from a variety of fun characters and fun themes!

2. Gender Neutral Murder Mystery Characters
We include plenty of gender-neutral murder mystery characters in our games, not only to help our murder mystery party hosts plan their party more efficiently (does anyone have exactly 9 female friends and 7 male friends they can invite specifically to fill a game on a whim?!), but also to allow players to choose their pronouns and be more inclusive to those in our community who identify as LGBTQ+.
3. Foulplay Cards
Just when everyone is getting comfortable with their evening, we like to add a little more intrigue and fun to the party! Our games turn the tables by allowing players the opportunity to potentially remove other players from the game! This element can certainly add a fun twist to the evening and get players to think more strategically about their gameplay and, of course, add a bit of drama to the night! And of course, everyone still gets to play with additional characters they can step into!
4. Unscripted Murder Mystery Games
Our murder mystery games are unscripted and allow your party guests to dive as deeply into their character and goals as they would like. Everything is open to each person on how they play their character, and each person can choose to play the game in a style that works for them! Both your introverted and extroverted guests will be able to participate as they are comfortable doing so. We even help you match characters with your guests! With no awkward scripts or anecdotes to memorize, the possibilities are endless for you and your group to make the evening your own! We find that our players come back to play our games again and again with different experiences each time!
5. Over 10 years of experience
We have over a decade of experience conceptualizing, coordinating, and executing events and murder mystery parties. We know what makes a great game and our Host Guides walk you through every step of setting up your event, including inviting guests, assigning characters, and tons of tips for all party situations! If you have any questions regarding your game or set up, we are always available to help you troubleshoot as well!
