This murder mystery party veteran is blown away impressed
I've participated in over 10 murder mystery parties, and run at least 7. This was the first one I did virtually, and I think it was by far one of the best mystery parties I've ever experienced. Virtual games take much less prep time - no printing/prepping clues/etc. The videos/virtual backgrounds help set the scene with no extra money spent on decorations. People were way more comfortable fully embracing their characters when they were not interacting face to face in person. The riddles and solution were very well done. Solved by most, but not all. I LOVED IT. Thank you so much!
