This mystery game challenges players to solve a 20-year-old cold case involving the disappearance and murder of Napa winemaker Cary Underwood. The case resurfaced after an earthquake revealed new evidence, though the killer was never identified. The kit includes realistic case materials such as victim and suspect photos, crime scene documentation, newspaper clippings, and additional evidence. Players can also access online hints and solutions. Designed to replicate investigative work, the game requires analyzing motive, means, and opportunity to solve the crime. Murder Mystery Party has been producing detective-style games since 1985. The game accommodates solo play or group settings like dinner parties. A video demonstration is available, along with access to the full range of Murder Mystery Party titles.
Things to Keep in MindA common sentiment among users is that the game relies heavily on reading extensive documents rather than interactive puzzles, leading to varied engagement. The mystery's resolution was frequently described as either too simplistic and quickly solvable, or conversely, illogical and frustrating due to unclear or insufficient clues. Why You'll Like ItMany players found the game to be an enjoyable and well-produced experience, with realistic and well-designed documents contributing to the overall quality.
