A sinister 1980s murder mystery party game filled with dark secrets, suspicious characters, shadowy organizations, and wicked happenings at the historic Craven Gray Manor. This mystery uses video components, with transcripts included as backups.

Murder Mystery Party Game Synopsis:

In Flamebury Falls, a historic estate known as Craven Gray Manor stands at the edge of town. Wicked events have unfolded at the manor over the years, leading some to believe the property is cursed. Others claim the owners encourage the rumors to attract thrill-seekers willing to visit the town and brave a stay at the estate. Who knows the truth?

Ridley Barnabet recently inherited the family fortune and plans to transform the manor into a popular local attraction and travel destination. Ridley has sent exclusive invitations to a VIP bash, and the town gossips are buzzing with rumors about what may happen when Flamebury Falls’ most prominent residents gather beneath one roof.

There are also whispers that a mysterious society known as The Clear may be involved with the event. The Clear is a top-secret social order that no one can confirm exists, yet everyone shares stories about how its members control the world and manipulate the headlines. Could The Clear be behind this gathering? Only time will tell, assuming time is willing to reveal the secret. You have received an invitation to the gathering at Craven Gray Manor.

This is where your story begins.
