Find the Spy before you Die game
This is a boxed kit for a non-murder mystery party game for 12 players, ages 14+. There is a larger kit available.
First of it's kind - it's a unique experience! How about a fun night of non-murder mystery where your guests are 'locked in a room' and given exciting challenges of working as a team, intellectual strength, and physical agility - all competing for secret clues each round to the saboteur's identity. Your guests will have a blast with exciting rounds of sleuthing clues and challenges while they attempt to figure out who the spy is among them and why they were invited to this exclusive dinner party. Great challenge for any group - churches, schools, corporate events or a fun night with friends & family! Ages 14+ for difficulty - non-murder mystery party for 8-12 guests.
Select the party ready (spoiler-free) option above, and our staff will fold and slip the clue cards for rounds one, two, and three into the envelopes to prevent you from seeing spoilers on the round cards. If you do not select this option, you will have some assembly required with your kit.
This is a challenge-based mystery party - not as much of a roleplaying experience as the traditional mystery parties, but more focused on three rounds of challenges to find the mole among the group. Mingling with clues is secondary to the challenges.

Note: this game does not have a victim sign because it is a unique, non-murder mystery party game. Also, there are not bonus games, but rather, the host will be provided with 3 challenges each round (9 total) and you are required to host one per round. The remaining games can be played after the mystery is over. With some of the bonus game options, some regular household items or other props (i.e. balloons, marshmallows) may be required. However, the game can be played with what is included in the printed and prepared download.

Fast shipping, professional printing
I decided to spend a little more for the pre- printed version, and I'm so glad that i did. Everything came in labeled envelopes and it looked extremely professional. The party isn't until next month, but I ordered it early thinking it would take a while to get here in the mail. Shipping was actually very fast, especially considering I was warned it could take extra time due to the hurricanes. Just from my experience so far, I would recommend this to a friend.
