Masquerade Murder Mystery Synopsis

Bloodworth Falls is an isolated town plagued by scandals. The townsfolk bicker in the streets, and many believe the local government is corrupt. Nevertheless, the mayor is hosting a mysterious masquerade ball in the old Bloodwood Castle. The tickets to the event have sold out in record time. The townspeople are curious to discover why the mayor would put effort into doing something positive in this hopeless town of gloom.

Anticipation for the event hangs thickly in the air, and many are already hunting for the perfect mask. You are worried about what will happen when toxic people come together this night. You are alarmed, as you didn't purchase your ticket - somebody placed it in your mailbox in an unmarked envelope. Somebody wants you there, but you're unsure why. This is where your story begins.

Blood wood Masquerade

Overall the game was easy to follow! We all got confused on round 2 because we felt strange confessing crimes we did and were confused on why our character would do that instead of lie or hide it. But it was a very fun night and definitely want to do another one!

So fun!!!

This is a great kit for a murder mystery party. Very clear on what to do and they give tips on the timeline. Great for teens. We hosted a whole soccer team at our house and they really got into character!

Great for teen party

Had this for my 15 year olds masquerade birthday party, and it was great. Everyone caught on very quickly and got into character. It was a blast. Was nervous it may be too long for teenagers but it was great and they loved accusing each other and acting as their characters. The victim was a little shy so I did have to intervene to help move the murder along, but it was still fantastic. I barely had to do anything, the cards do a good job of making things flow. I made color coded name tags so I could easily hand clues (I scrolled and tied in colored yard) to people.

Fun Characters

Okay, who doesn't love playing a good villain? I got this to throw a work party for my pharmacy team. It's a high stress job and we needed to do something to unwind. There's something cathartic about playing a bad guy, and boy howdy was this a room full of the most awful bleep-holes you ever met! My team got SO into character. We were out in public, in a restaurant, and they were having so much fun and were so deep into the story that they completely refused to break character, no matter what happened. The party was two weeks ago and they're still talking about it. The plot is good, of course, and the game flows easily, but what really sells this one is the characters. The awful, awful, fun characters. Rock your bad side and give it a try.

Great fun

This was bought for a group of 14 year olds/ they had a great time.
