I'm going to be the Best Man and I'm organising a surprise engagement party for the bride to be.
I think it would be a great idea to do a murder mystery, but I don't really want it to be too complicated and too long as I feel the guests may lose interest and I have a DJ lined up also.
Are there any quite simple ones? Plus I'm renting out a function room, so it will all be happening in the function room.
I have never seen one of these before and I think as long as it lasts around two hours with buffet then would be good laugh.
Could you help please?
My response:
An engagement party? That's an interesting idea - be careful who you choose as the murderer and victim!
Anyway, the games on my site generally last between 3 and 4 hours long, including time to set up and wind down. They're aimed at taking up an entire evening - I think you'd struggle to get them down to two hours.
But it might be fun to try.
Probably the biggest issue you're likely to have is the number of guests - I imagine an engagement party could be pretty big, but there are fewer murder mystery party games for lots of guests.
If you do decide to go down this route, I strongly suggest that you do a dry run first and host one of the parties for a different group. Engagement parties are pretty important - and you wouldn't want to mess it up through inexperience!

Can I still host A Speakeasy Murder with 12 guests? And just delete three non-essential characters? My response: A Speakeasy Murder is designed for 15-32
