I liked the characters and the story and got a lot of information out of it, but the actual solution is really difficult to come up with from it.

We took this on a recent cruise for some down time during “at sea” days for the three of us. This was our first mystery game and weren’t sure what to expect. But we were soon hooked. We would play for an hour or two then break off and pick it up at the next opportunity. We found ourselves discussing it when we weren’t playing trying to figure out where to go next, how to find another clue, who done it and so forth. By the end of the cruise we had solved it! What we really liked was the interview vignettes and the fantastic evidence bags. We would get so excited when we got to open another one! We also liked that sometimes you needed to circle back and review because things that didn’t seem important, later turned out to be. All in all very well done!

For our first Mysterious Package, I purchased Post Mortem 1 for my father for his birthday. It culminated in multiple family members and many hours spent sleuthing, questioning and solving! We were entranced! We will happily purchasing others in the future.

My husband and I did this on a weekend away and it was such a fun game. Hard enough but not too difficult. Perfect fun.

It was our first time with the Mysterious Package Company and for us the logistics of the game itself and playing as a group were the initial challenges. We then decided the best was to read the pulp fiction novel individually and meet periodically to share our findings and open the evidence packs. It took a few sessions but we cracked it! Very fun and will repeat!!
