Reunion with Death is for 6-9 people and is set at a 15-year high-school reunion, in smallish-town America. Former students are gathering in the town's main hotel, ahead of the big party tonight. But someone has been murdered and everyone is now locked in the hotel until the murder is solved!
Death in Venice is for 5 to 9 people and is set aboard the luxury yacht Casanova following a post-award party at the Venice Film Festival. Controversial director Clay McFarland is dead - and someone aboard the Casanova murdered him!
