This unique large-event murder mystery game accommodates 50–300 players and is ideal for a ballroom event with a seated dinner or buffet.

Depending on the kit size, 10, 15, or 20 players portray the CEO suspects nominated for the inaugural Midas Award by Fordes Magazine. The remaining guests are divided among the CEOs’ tables as supporting friends, family members, and colleagues, and each will receive a Mystery Investigation Card. Each CEO leads a team whose members work together to investigate the mystery and support their nominee.

Important: Kit A requires at least 50 players. The victim is not an assigned guest role.

Scroll below this section to preview or download the Sample Game, Host Character Lists, and free invitations for each kit size.

The Sample Game contains carefully selected excerpts from the game, including plotlines, clue card formatting, the event timeline, and other materials. It allows you to evaluate the game’s format and quality before purchasing without revealing the solution. 

The boxed set example shows one of our standard kits and does not show the dossier materials that you will receive with this kit. However, the remainder of the kit will be similar. There is no victim sign/envelope in this kit, as the victim is not a cast player, but there will be multiple copies of the forensic report - one for each table.
