DARK TALES — the mystery deck that turns any room into a detective's table. A body in a locked room. A man who steps off a train and vanishes. Every card gives you one strange, unexplained scene — and it's up to the group to figure out what really happened. If you love dark stories, black stories, and lateral-thinking riddles, this is your game. HOW IT WORKS One phone. One Host. A room full of guessers. • The Host picks a mystery and reads the scene aloud. • The Host quietly reads the hidden solution — for their eyes only. • Everyone else asks yes-or-no questions. • The Host may answer only three ways: Yes. No. Irrelevant. • Piece the clues together until someone cracks the case — then read the full story to the table. No board, no pieces, no setup. Just a phone and a group of curious minds. 446 MYSTERIES — AND COUNTING • Real mysteries — true, documented events that actually happened. • Written by us — original tales dreamed up for the deck. • Four flavors: Crime, Accident, Uncanny, and Logic. • Five difficulty tiers, from Novice to Master. • Built-in hints for when the table gets stuck. MADE FOR PLAYING TOGETHER Perfect for parties, road trips, dinners, classrooms, campfires, and long nights with friends. A brilliant icebreaker and a genuine test of deduction, teamwork, and lateral thinking. WHY YOU'LL LIKE IT • 100% offline — play anywhere, no signal needed. • No accounts, no ads, no in-app purchases. • Play in English, Nederlands, Español, and Deutsch. • A moody, hand-crafted design made to be passed around the table. Deal a card. Ask the right questions. Crack the case. Download Dark Tales and start your first mystery tonight.
