A clever detective-themed non-murder mystery party game starring Mancy Crew and the River Peak High Forensic Science Club. This lighthearted forensic mystery features a priceless stolen diamond, jewelry-store evidence, suspicious classmates, secret codes, riddles, hidden motives, scientific sleuthing, and a jewel thief with ties to River Peak High School.
Tween Non-Murder Mystery Party Game Synopsis:
Mancy Crew is a senior at River Peak High School with exceptional investigative talent. After recognizing her natural sleuthing abilities, Mancy founded the River Peak High Forensic Science Club. The organization has become so skilled that its members have even assisted the local police department on occasion.
Recently, Mancy received an urgent message from the River Peak police concerning a daring robbery at Hemsberg Diamonds Jewelry Store. The Zamkiki Diamond—the fourth-largest diamond in the world—was on display when jewel thieves broke into the store and stole it from its case. Evidence discovered at the scene suggests that the thieves may have ties to River Peak High School.
The forensic club has agreed to assist the police and will meet at the jewelry store, where Mancy will brief the group and organize the investigation. The club may need to analyze evidence, decipher secret codes, solve riddles, compare motives, and determine which suspect is connected to the theft. The Zamkiki Diamond must be recovered before the jewel thief disappears for good. This is where your story begins.

I used this template for a tween birthday party, girl turning 12 and 7 additional girls. This was a fun game that the girls enjoyed. At first they were unsure of what to do and thankfully we had two adult players that were able to get things started. Once they understood how it worked they began to have fun. I made the decorations using my cricut and Nancy Drew images I cut out. My daughter loved them! I found clipboards at the Dollar store, note pads, pens with diamonds on the ends and glitter pens. I bought some magnifying glasses on Amazon and bundled them all together for the girls party favors. I also put their names with vinyl on each clipboard and the girls really loved them, especially those with unique names that never get things with their names on them. Each of the players dressed the recommended part which added to the fun.
The clues were fun for the 12 year olds, but were difficult for her 7 year old sister to follow but she had fun nonetheless.
We did not play any of the bonus games that were given as it seems they are meant to be outdoor games or in very large homes. We wouldn't have had time to play the games anyway because the game itself is long.

We are super glad your party was a hit! We agree - 7 years old is a bit too young for this challenge level. We do beta test our games and have found this game is best for 12 and up. Nevertheless, we're glad they had fun!
Party for 8-12 year old girl book club. The younger girls definitely couldn’t figure out the clues 10-12 year olds perfect level. I loved that it got the girls talking. I’ve done other mysteries from this company and have enjoyed them all. We did buy a fake diamond from the dollar store that was fun for them to find. I also purchased clipboards for their investigation sheets that I’d recommend that it made it easier for the girls to walk around a talk.
