The
Final Curtain
lasts for about four hours and is suited to an evening. It is often
played over a meal - a finger buffet is possible to allow guests to
circulate and talk in private.
The free introductory pdf file (which you can download from the Murder Mystery Games Ltd website) contains a guest list, an invitation, a copy of "The Littledean Bugle" - plus details of how to pay.
How The Final Curtain Works
Unlike most boxed murder mystery games, The Final Curtain lets you decide how you are going to solve the mystery and achieve your objectives. You will choose who to talk to, and what to ask them.
On the evening, the guests are met by Jay Fitzharing, the owner and manager of the Littledean Theatre. They then receive their detailed backgrounds - including dark secrets, objectives and money. The fun then begins as everyone questions, bribes and blackmails each other - and tries to find out who murdered Vincent Royle. However, the murderer hasn't finished and before the night is out he or she will claim one more victim. Finally, everyone has the chance to make their accusations of who killed the Vincent Royle before Inspector Blewitt reveals all.
