Tween Mystery Party Game | Echo Spy Academy

Spy Mystery Party Description:     

     An intriguing tween non-murder mystery party for 8-16 players, ages 11 to adult, in a teen spy academy/castle setting. Expansion packs are available and purchased separately - #1 adds 8 suspect players, and #2 adds 8 more suspect players, totaling 32 available roles when the main game and both expansion packs are purchased. 

     With younger groups (11 years), it is best to have a parent host/older teen to assist them in case they need help. Please review the sample game materials to see format, readability, and plotlines before purchasing. This will be an easier sleuth for adult groups, but a great choice if you need a lesser difficulty and want some lighthearted fun. The mystery involves solving the case of a stolen piece of spy technology. 

There are four PDF files to download with this game - host instructions, printable materials, answer key, and the optional free invitation file.  You must use Adobe Reader (free software that you can download at Adobe.com) to view the PDF file, as a PDF is an Adobe product. 

Format: this is a traditional, mingling, clue-based game (downloadable version) for in-person groups. This is the instant download upon purchase version of the game. There's nothing to be shipped, as you'll have everything you need with the download - no waiting, no shipping fees!  Easy to host, easy to prepare. For the boxed set, see the party ready pack link under the helpful links section below.

Gifting: the standard game license does not allow transfers, so you cannot purchase a download as a gift. For gifts, click here for gift certificates, or use the link below for the boxed version of the game (party pack).
