Murder Mystery Party Game Synopsis:

It is 1927, and organized crime is thriving in major cities across the United States. Rum-running, loan sharking, protection rackets, illegal gaming halls, and hidden speakeasies have become extraordinarily profitable enterprises for the country’s most powerful mob organizations. In an attempt to unite the criminal underworld, crime bosses from Atlantic City, New York City, and Chicago have agreed to establish a governing organization known as The Commission.

The proposed organization will oversee the nation’s major crime factions and determine how territories, business operations, and disputes will be handled. Unfortunately, the mobsters cannot agree on how The Commission should operate, whether it should exist, or who should become the boss of all bosses. The conflict has created hostility among the rival families, but the mob leaders have promised to honor an unbreakable truce during the Atlantic City Conference.

Nuggy Jones, the powerful leader of the Atlantic City Mob, will host the gathering at the luxurious Karlton Ritz Hotel on the Boardwalk. The country’s most influential gangsters, gun molls, politicians, business owners, and associates will soon arrive in Atlantic City. You have received an invitation to the conference—and this is where your story begins.
