how to choose

II recommend that you choose a party game so you can more-or-less fill it.

The games generally play better if you have more people rather than less, so for example, if you had only 30 people for your party, I would choose Hollywood Lies or Murder at Sea rather than The Last Gasp or The Auction.

murder mystery party games for conservative groups

These games are ideal for more conservative groups as they don't refer to drugs, and there are fewer shady characters than in the other games.

(Of course, I can't guarantee that someone won't find something offensive - these games include murder, after all. You know your guests and must use your judgement.)
