Murder at the Golf Tournament

This game is designed to be played during a golf tournament, spread out over 18 holes - or it can be played during a 9-hole game.

A golf tournament integrated murder mystery for an unlimited amount of participants. There are 8 required actor roles for this game to play the roles of the suspects.

The game is sectioned into three rounds for an 18-hole game:

• Round one is the first 9 holes where the characters will mingle with the golfers as they play through.

• Round two: The murder occurs mid-way, and then the investigation happens on the back nine. You'll post evidence cards on the back nine holes and the guests will submit their best guesses of whodunit as they finish the course. 

• Round three: is the solution round. There are many ways to play this round - either the actors will present the solutions formally during the after party, or you can simply post the solution for the guests to see as they leave the course. 

The game is sectioned into three rounds for a 9-hole game: 

• Round one is the first 4 holes where the characters will mingle with the suspect characters as they arrive and play through. Since you are shortening the game to 9 holes, you'll stage 2-3 actors at the reception desk for check-in, to mingle with them before the players start hole #1. Then, you'll stage actors at holes #1-4 with 1-2 holes having 1-2 actors to mingle with the players.

• Round two: The murder occurs on hole 5, and then the investigation happens on the back nine. You'll post evidence cards on holes 6-9 and the players will submit their best guesses of whodunit as they finish the course. Some holes will have more than one evidence card.

• Round three: is the solution round. There are many ways to play this round - either the actors will present the solutions formally during the after party, or you can simply post the solution for the guests to see as they leave the course. 

Again, this is not the traditional format of a murder mystery party. This is a golf-themed mystery that is integrated into a golf tournament. This game will require actors to play the roles of the suspects. 

Select the party ready 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.

Example of a boxed kit. This game will not have a victim sign or forensic report. Instead, it will have an announcement of the murder (to be posted on the middle hole of the tournament, and evidence cards to post on subsequent holes).

Mystery Synopsis: 

Bloodworth Falls is a charming city isolated in the mountains and known for landmark 19^th-century buildings. The Black Night Castle is the most popular tourist attraction, bringing visitors from all over the globe. Julian Tremblay, the wealthiest person in The Falls, is the heir to the estate. The mayor of Bloodworth Falls is hosting a charity golf tournament in honor of Julian Tremblay at the exclusive Bloodworth Falls Country Club. The event will raise funds for the restoration of the historical Black Night Castle. The who’s who has all signed up to play and the event will certainly be the talk of the town.

The winner of the tournament will receive a lifetime membership to the club, as well as many other luxurious prizes. You’ve seen the guest list and are deeply concerned that many of the participants may cause mayhem having to be in the same place at the same time. You’re going to be there, nevertheless. This is where your story begins.

Commercial licensing:

If you are hosting this commercially, you will need a commercial license - so other than a private party on a golf course (where you have the golf course to yourself, it is not being held as a benefit to the golf course, and no promotional items are being made). This is a single-use license for a private event unless you also purchase the commercial license via the above link. Purchase this standard license with the commercial license on the same order.  But if you do not purchase the commercial license simultaneously, you'll need to put the order number and game title on your commercial license order, or the license will automatically be assigned to the last game purchased on your account and this cannot be changed. Also, the license will remain active for the active period of the standard license.

A statement that this is a MyMysteryParty.com game in all online/print/verbal or otherwise promotional materials is required by the license - see the commercial license for further details.
