All at Sea
All at Sea is for 16 to 33 players (plus one host) and is set at the outbreak of the First World War. An American cruise liner, the Libertania, is in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean when its Captain is murdered...
The guests, playing the parts of crew and passengers, must uncover the murderer before the Libertania arrives in port.

In All at Sea everyone has a complete character with background, friends and objectives. Each guest decides how he or she will approach the murder - and the murderer must try to avoid detection.
At the start of All at Sea, the Captain of the Libertania is murdered in front of the other characters. (Don't worry - the player who acts out the role has another character to play. He isn't left for dead while everyone else has a good time!)
The passengers and crew must then try and solve the murderer - but that's not all. In addition, most characters have other goals and objectives. In All at Sea, for example, the acting Captain must take charge, the stewards must carry out their duties and the passengers must decide how to react to the news of impending war.
The cast of All at Sea includes:
- The crew of the Libertainia - its senior officers, stewards and stewardesses.
- Important diplomats from America, Germany, Britain and other countries on the brink of war.
- Spies and secret agents.
- Smugglers, thieves and murderers.
- The rich and the famous - and the not-so-rich and not-so-famous.
- Journalists and reporters.
- and many more.
Instead of a formal dinner party, All at Sea is better suited to a buffet meal or finger food. Everyone needs to be able to talk quietly with each other - the officers may need to discuss what to do with the Libertania and diplomats may want to hold secret discussions about the war.
All at Sea needs a host, someone to organise the game. They will read the entire game and will be available to answer questions. It's a lot of fun being the host - you know what's going on and can watch your friends scheme and plot and be devious to one another.
