A known millionaire, Samuel was a man of great wealth, some of which you hope to gain in inheritance —but only if you are brave enough to attend the reading of his will.
For while foul play was indicated in his death, the killer has yet to be brought to justice… and is likely to strike again!
Between Samuel’s eccentric ex-wife to his spying servants and the provocative pool boy, it seems that everyone has a chance of inheriting a piece of this millionaire’s estate.
As one of the deceased’s confidants or family members, it is your help
that is needed to piece together his mystifying death, all the while avoiding
being the victim of yet another murder at the will reading.

This will depend on (a) the version of party you order and (b) what you/they want to do at the party.
Some murder mystery party game rules say (generally the smaller 6-8 guest and 8-12 guest versions) have the victim rise and become the investigator after their “death.”
Since the victim does not know who murdered them, they can still play along and try to guess the murderer using their previous background knowledge and their money in order to bribe and blackmail others and derive their secrets from one another.
If you have a larger version, and you have not assigned the investigator (they are generally listed as the first person to eliminate for this reason), then the victim will need to become the investigator.
If you have assigned the investigator, but have an extra role that is not already filled, the victim can become this person (if you order the 20-80 player version, this will always be an option).
If the victim wishes to do nothing, they can do that as well. Some guests really enjoy playing along “dead” and trying to figure out who killed them.
