A sophisticated large-group murder mystery filled with powerful CEOs, corporate rivalries, executive egos, suspicious alliances, prestigious awards, loyal company teams, and deadly ambition at the glamorous Plaza Ritz Hotel.

This unique large-event murder mystery game 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 players are divided among the CEOs’ tables as supporting colleagues, and each will receive a Mystery Investigation Card. Each CEO leads a team that works 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.

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. This kit includes no victim sign/envelope, as the victim is not a cast player, but it includes multiple copies of the forensic report in envelopes, one for each table.
