Couldn’t get to step 1

App doesn’t let me sign in. Code not serialised

Played at a party-will play again!

This was so much fun. Things really picked up after the murder and we all got super into it. I absolutely will use this at my own party in the future

Great but Voting Feature Didn’t Work

It is a great app, and we all enjoyed it, but the voting feature wouldn’t let us see any results.

Good but needs improvement

This app has a lot of potential but needs improvement. I think it’s an affordable option at $1 a player. However, there are 3 issues I ran into:
1. One character’s objectives had to do with a player that wasn’t in a character pack I bought. So his objectives were confusing and he wasn’t able to complete them
2. More guidance throughout the game and specific questions for each player to ask would be helpful in facilitating the game. Not a whole script, but just a few questions per player.
3. The host should be able to vote since they don’t see the murderer until the end. They also aren’t able to vote on “best” awards. Our voting never worked and so we had to vote my mouth.

Overall I’d play again, but the game would benefit from some minor improvements!

Cost money!!!!

It’s stupid that it costs money!!!!!!!!!!

Great concept, app needs improvement

We had a lot of fun playing the game, and exploring the characters and plot twists. The game felt a little short and the app itself needs some improvement. The rounds would not open at the same time, so not everyone had the information they needed. It would also be more helpful if the app had a notification each time a round opened or the host received an update.

Enjoyable

Though it was enjoyable, the app needs to have more prompts for switching of rounds and for the person who dies. There were no indications of when to switch rounds and of who dies.

Don’t waste your time

This game did not work well, it didn’t alert us when the rounds were starting and unlocked the rounds at different times.

Paid for it and it didn’t work

I downloaded this hoping to use it for a virtual party. Paid $10.99 for a theme (which definitely came out). It says I haven’t bought any. Giving it the benefit of the doubt, I tried everything before writing this. I closed and reopened it, uninstalled and reinstalled, waited 3 days and still nothing. I will be getting my money back.

Dismal

We played this with a group of people.

Shockingly little dialogue to actually make this game enjoyable.

Not worth any money at all.

A party to die for!

This is an amazing concept! Everyone at the party had such a good time! Can’t wait to organize our next event!

Not made for virtual, online, teams, zoom, FaceTime.

We just finished our party. How do I get my money back? This was not made for virtual party like is advertised. There was no way to talk to people privately. We should have been able to see our part a couple days early so we could practice our characters secrets and objectives rather than trying to figure it out during. As the host it was not clear on how to take the party to the next step. At the end I didn’t get to bite on anything as the host and then when I clicked on results it only gave me an error message of “pull to refresh” “no results”. My guest said they voted on best dressed, best character and we could not get any results. Out of 5 stars this was negative 1. I will be leaving a review to warn others but would like my money back please!

Rubbish

Rubbish not worth the money only really works well if you’re all in a group together not worth it

Fun evening

I did this for my birthday this year as ...lockdown you know. We did it over Zoom and it worked really well with all my friends getting into it and dressing up. A different evening and great fun. Would probably be a bit better in person as sidling up to people etc a bit difficult on Zoom! But all I all a good fun experience.

Best zoom party ever!

I’ve actually never played a murder mystery before and wanted to bring one virtually for my team’s holiday party and after extensive research I landed on this app because it seemed so much more accessible and easy to use than these other $60-$70 mysteries. My coworkers and I had a blast! We played with all 21 characters on zoom. We played for just over an hour but you can easily play for 2-3 hours depending on how much time you have and want to devote to each round. The app is easy to follow and I loved the voting feature. Another reason I rated this game 5 startle was their live chat support, I needed help more than once and or had questions about how to play and they answered me within minutes! I would def buy another game and recommend this app. One thing that could be improved is the instructions both for host/guest as the host doesn’t see the same thing as the guest sees and if you never played a murder mystery before you aren’t exactly sure of how and when to go to the next round, etc. But otherwise a great app and so affordable!

Dreadful waste of money

This is a total con! V glitchy and difficult to log in. No customer service. The game lasted about 25 minutes, total rubbish, no content. Literally the worst app ever downloaded. Do NoT buy. I think it has been forgotten by its creators but somehow is still allowed on AppStore.
This was an evening ruined

This is NOT a free app

Technically, I suppose you can say it’s “free” but you cannot play without purchasing a theme. I hear they previously offered one free theme, but now no longer do that - hence making this app worthless unless your ready to drop some cash. I love Murder Mystery parties, but am unwilling to pay until I know what I am buying. Heck, even some of the most reputable MM companies offer a free game so you get an idea of the gameplay and quality of story. You should either make this a paid app with one free theme, or make it abundantly clear that this front-end is no good without buying themes. Really disappointed.

SO FUN

Used this app to host a murder mystery party for my 28th birthday and it was an absolute blast! We chose the Copper Creek theme and went all out with Wild West decorations and costumes, and the app did not disappoint when it came to the storyline and characters. Definitely will try the other themes in the future. Really, really hope they keep making more and would be great if they could make an app for Androids.

Rip off

You buy the theme but the PDFs cost another $20. If your friends are on android, that’s another $3 per character for their character details and with 7 required characters, it racks up quickly.

Great game, works really well

I was very skeptical of this beforehand but the game is excellent, had a great game with friends on Zoom, app works really well. Used the All that Jazz theme, going to try more in the coming weeks!
