Turn your friends into suspects in a murder mystery case.

A custom murder mystery game is a personalized case built around the names, relationships, and city you provide. Players work together as detectives to read the case files, compare evidence, identify the killer, and solve the murder.

Yes. You can enter real first names, occupations, and relationship details for up to six people. They become fictional suspects described in the case files; they do not need to play characters or act out the murder.

It is a personalized case-solving game. Everyone investigates the same custom case by reviewing suspect profiles, evidence, messages, and clues. Players are detectives, not assigned characters in a scripted performance.

Many traditional dinner-party kits assign characters and dialogue for guests to perform. Cold Case Game Kits works like an unsolved case file instead: your group examines the evidence, discusses theories, and decides which suspect committed the murder.

No. There are no costumes, assigned roles, scripted dialogue, or scenes to perform. Players simply investigate together, follow the clues, submit an arrest warrant, and unlock the solution when they identify the correct suspect.

Sometimes, yes. When a custom case has a strong mystery structure, we may adapt it into a Cold Case Agency case by changing personalized details like names, relationships, and sometimes the city or location. That allows the core case idea to live on without keeping your private details attached to it.

You can do either. Your custom case is delivered digitally, so you can read it on screen or print it out like a printable murder mystery game for your event.

After payment, you complete the short intake, review the three story options, and choose the one you want. The final custom case usually takes about five minutes to generate, and your private access link is delivered automatically.

The builder lets you include up to six named suspects, and the finished case works especially well for 2 to 6 players. The players investigate together as detectives; they do not portray the suspects.

When you think you have the right suspect, you submit an arrest warrant inside the case. If you picked the correct suspect, the warrant is approved and the full solution unlocks for you to open. If not, you can keep reviewing the evidence and try again.

You only need your email, your city, and your suspect details to begin. The fastest builds come from having first names, occupations, and relationship notes ready before you open the custom case builder.

The custom case builder is available in five languages: English, French, Spanish, German, and Italian. Choose your language before starting so the intake, story choices, and finished case use the language you prefer.
