FAQs

How many players are needed?

While it can be played with a smaller group, it is designed for a social setting and works best with 3-6 players.

Do I need to know anything about British history to play?

No, the story is a work of fiction and all necessary context is provided within the game materials.

Is this suitable for children?

The game is designed for teens and adults due to the complexity of the mystery and thematic content.

Can I play this game more than once?

As a mystery-solving game, the plot remains the same, so it is typically a single-experience title.

What if I get the answer wrong?

The investigation encourages collaborative deduction; if you reach an incorrect conclusion, you can review the online guide to see where your logic diverged.

Troubleshooting

Cannot access online clues

Verify that your internet connection is active and double-check the URL provided in the box instructions.

Group is stuck on a specific clue

Review the physical evidence cards again, as the solution often relies on cross-referencing information between multiple documents.

Missing game piece

Ensure the contents are thoroughly checked against the inventory list included in the box; if items are missing, contact the manufacturer's support.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality tactile materials and physical evidence
  • Engaging storyline with six distinct suspects
  • Perfect for group activities and dinner parties
  • No prior experience or complex rulebook required
  • Screen-free focus keeps players engaged with each other

Cons

  • Requires a significant time investment of 2-3 hours
  • Single-use game design limits replayability
  • Requires a stable internet connection to access supplemental online clues

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup is minimal; simply clear a large table to accommodate the evidence files and ensure your group has access to a smartphone or computer for the additional online clues. The game is self-contained, meaning no additional materials or pens are strictly required, though having notebooks for tracking theories is helpful. Since the game relies on physical documents, keep liquids and food items away from the evidence cards and files to prevent damage. After finishing the game, ensure all 37 pieces are returned to the box to keep the set complete for future groups.
