CRYPTIC KILLERS Unsolved murder mystery game - Cold Case Files Investigation - - Detective Evidence & Crime File - individuals, date nights & party games- Murder at the Magic Mirror Casino

SO MUCH FUN!!!! I have played case solving games from other brands but this was my first Cryptic Killers game to play. I'm such a fan now!!! I loved the story line and had so much fun going through all the different types of evidence to piece all the clues together. Once I found the alibis for the different suspects I was able to eliminate it down to the killer. It was very entertaining and challenging. I will definitely solve more cases from Cryptic Killers!!!

This was our first one and we seem to have been slower than others, but we did it over 3 evenings and it took about 6 hours. It was well thought out, difficult enough, but not impossible to figure out. We missed 2 clues which was why it took us longer, but it was thoroughly enjoyable. We did it as a couple with our adult daughter helping occasionally. Would be a great thing to do as a group. We know to be more watchful for certain clues the next time. And there will be a next time.

Brilliant. 2 of us sat and did on a free day. 3.5 difficulty rating was nice, we had our suspicions but still had to piece together the evidence and though we had a few avenues to look like, it didnt cause any arguments or 'board game tension' some couples may get. Took about 4 hrs with breaks to start and tend to our fire and get nibbles in the middle. Would happily to another one, really enjoyable. Used a black and red pen and a spare paper pad to complete so we've been able to pack it up and will swap with my parents who got a different case 🙂 The online case files were a nice touch and we loved that when we went to the website to put in who had done it that it confirmed our theories on the other suspects albis.

Well thought out and fun to solve. This puzzle had some interesting twist and creative clues!

This is our third one and we heavily reccomend. As a couple who met on a forensics course - it is our bread and butter. Some require decoding messages but this did not which was a nice change. It includes newspaper snippets, police reports, access to emails and CCTV images, takes 1-2 hours and is great fun. Good one to start with, buy it! Printed well and can be done as with as little as one person. Probably good for 16+ but that depends on the people, would reccomend if they are interested as it would make a good gift idea.
