At hit for 12 year old birthday party
Chose this theme for my daughter’s 12 year old birthday. The girls had so much fun! We decorated like a celebrity party and had a red carpet entrance. They all came dressed as they interpreted their character. The game took about 1 1/2 hours. We did serve apps during the game so it felt like a real party. As the host I did have quite a bit of pre work but it turned out very fun in the end. I made sure to know the victim so I could help guide the party along if needed but did not know the murderer so I wasn’t able to influence the ending. Highly recommend! The girls wanted to do another one!

So fun!
This is the second My Mystery Party that I have hosted. Both were huge hits with our friends! The downloads are easy to understand and the stories and characters are great! This Album Release party was for my daughter and her friends - as soon as they were done they asked if they can do another one next month! I also appreciated that it was age appropriate as described (13 and up).
