## What is Murder at Halfmoon Manor?

One houseguest holds the knife. Everyone else needs to prove it before the manor goes quiet.

Murder at Halfmoon Manor is a whimsical-noir chase game for 3–6 houseguests. Roll to choose a publicly revealed Murderer, then race through one-way hallways, collect hard evidence, use secret passages, and reach the rotary telephone before the killer thins the guest list.

PLAY YOUR WAY
• Fill any seat with a human or computer player—play solo with AI or pass one iPhone or iPad around the room.
• Choose from three settings: Halfmoon Manor, the Gilded Wing, and the Widow's Conservatory.
• Mix in three modes: Standard, the 12-round Dawn Patrol, or the ruthless Two Knives mode for 5–6 players.

A HOUSE WITH RULES OF ITS OWN
Investigators roll a d8 and follow the arrows. The Murderer prowls in either direction with a d5. Flip cards as you pass, escape through paired trapdoors, and gather three pieces of hard evidence. If someone witnesses a murder, they can ignore the arrows and run straight for the phone.

BUILT FOR THE TABLE
• Hot-seat play on one device
• Optional hand-off screens between human turns
• Motion, sound, detail, and Classic 2D controls
• Offline play with no accounts, ads, or in-app purchases
• Save and resume an unfinished night

Lock the doors. Mind the arrows. Try not to become the chalk outline.
