Post Mortem LA: Death in La-La Land
Case Synopsis
“I remain just one thing, and one thing only, and that is a clown. It places me on a far higher plane than any politician.” - Charlie Chaplin
It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s… the new mayoral candidate soaring through the air, straight into Pirate Poppy’s Popcorn Stand. And now chaos has landed in the carnival…
Due to a profound corruption scandal, the District Attorney has given the Global Detective Agency temporary jurisdiction and oversight of the LAPD. And so -- in need of more gumshoes on the ground -- they are looking to recruit a large number of probationary cautionary auxiliary investigators. That would be you.
You must figure out who is behind it is all - before you yourself become La-La Land’s next high-flying victim. The package sent to you will contain all the resources you need to carve your path around the park, interrogate suspects, and solve the murder.
There are conniving forces working in the shadows of this seemingly innocent amusement park. Keep your head down, your ears perked up, and remember: Our eyes never sleep.
Post Mortem: Death in La-La Land is suitable for ages 13 and above. Your recipient will enjoy it if they love murder mysteries and noire detective stories.
Contents: 1 Mailing Experience

Form 15a: Questions to answer and the case resolution
I learned how to navigate the LA murder game on the first story, so it was easier for me to jump in and explore this one. I enjoy a story/game that gives me just enough autonomy and challenge that I'm able to feel like I'm in the story world, without getting stumped and frustrated. This is just my speed - relaxing and atmospheric.
We had so much fun trying to solve this mystery. People had different theories, and everyone was checking the evidence, comparing it to their notes, and then having … exuberant discussions. I’ve ordered quite a few of these (both for myself and for friends), and they never fail to satisfy. Another excellent experience!
This is the third one that we’ve ordered. The books are well written and the evidence packs greatly add to the overall “investigation “. We greatly enjoy this as a family!
My buddy got this as a gift and it was so much fun! It was engaging, interesting, and the whole clues and props were so cool and awesomely made. We already ordered our second game! Cannot wait to try more!
