Best Mystery Party Games

Mystery Party Games are those kind of games in which they drive you mad trying to find out who, when, how, why, what with, etc. an action, event or crime happened.

It's not just about figuring out who killed or who did the wrong, but about finding out other clues and answers to different questions, and acting like somebody else for the evening, that's the fun!

The more answers to find the more complicated the games gets and the better the mystery game becomes too.

A mystery is not really a mystery if what you have to solve is easy. You can think of Agatha Christie's books, or the classic Sherlock Holmes stories to help you to make your own mystery games.

If you're not the creative type, or are pushed for time, then there are lots of Murder Mystery games on Amazon.

Create your own games

Though as a mystery is something difficult to solve, to create a mystery game is usually more difficult than an ordinary game, involving writing a script and managing who gets what information. But you can make it easy on yourself and still have a good time. A very simple funny mystery game:

Each player will be a secret agent assigned to focus on somebody else during the mystery party. He has to make notes about what the other person does, says, etc. At the end of the party each spy has to give their top five highlights about their target's evening; everybody else has to try to guess who his target was. The spy that gives the funniest, or most entertaining report gets a prize.
