Quick surprise game

by Jesse
(Raleigh, NC USA)

I want to do a surprise game for a group of about 50-60 where only 15 people know about it and they can have some of the more detailed characters but the rest would come in and get handed a card with information.

It would be about 60-90 minutes long. do you have something like that?

My response:

It sounds like the Mysteries-on-the-Net would suit your needs.

They are designed so that there are several suspects, each with a detailed character background and notes.

The other guests can be assigned as investigators. They will have clues and will have the job of solving the crime.

Mysteries-on-the-Net have lots of different parties for all sizes and tastes. I suggest you take a look at the list and then click through to the site.
