I purchased the Night Of Mystery packet for a work team building event. All of my co-workers said it was the best team event they’ve been to. The packet was very straightforward and had so many ideas and tips to help make running the event super simple. Highly recommend! – Christine Benoit

With society’s most notable and notorious set to attend, it is going to be a soiree to die for … Until someone actually does!
As the Great Gatsby murder mystery party progresses the guests will be asked to inspect, interrogate and investigate in order to uncover the killer.
Will it be the savvy songbird with silver screen dreams? A corrupt chief who pulls strings in the city? A dainty doll with a dangerous side? Or maybe the bold Bruno who ends up in bracelets.
With more motives than a moll’s got minks, it will be up to the guests to find the gunsel before the night is through.

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.
