A magical fairytale murder mystery party game set inside the Dark Castle of the Silver Tree Forest. This shadowy storybook mystery is packed with wicked queens, imprisoned princesses, powerful sorcerers, legendary creatures, feuding territories, secret romances, dangerous alliances, royal treachery, hidden agendas, and murder during an ominous peace summit.
Murder Mystery Party Game Synopsis:
Once upon a time, the inhabitants of the Enchanted Realm lived together peacefully. That harmony began to crumble when Queen Black seized control of the Silver Tree Forest. Under her dark rule, happy endings have become nightmares; the ruling Kingdom of Gullyshire has suffered repeated attacks; and villains have begun to gain power throughout the realm.
The Mystic Mountains are now overrun with dangerous creatures, wicked witches have taken control of the Charmed Forest, and old alliances are rapidly falling apart. Despite the growing unrest, Queen Black has stunned the realm by inviting representatives from every territory to the Dark Castle of the Silver Tree Forest to negotiate and sign a peace treaty.
Many residents believe the queen has sinister intentions, but refusing her summons could be even more dangerous than attending. Princesses, rulers, sorcerers, pirates, witches, and other legendary figures will soon gather beneath the same roof, each carrying secrets, rivalries, and private agendas. You have received an invitation from Queen Black, and this is where your story begins.
