Cryptic Killers Unsolved murder mystery game - Cold Case Files Investigation Detective Evidence & Crime File - individuals, date nights & party games- Murder at Merivale Manor

This is such good value and quality. After doing a few of there types of things this is the best quality wise I’ve come across. The attention to detail and level of effort that’s gone into making the “evidence” is amazing. I love that you are essential left to get on with investigating without having to add info in or check in. You are just investigating the evidence, piecing it together gradually and working on it as a case file, then when you think you’ve solved it submit your answer. It’s really clever and interesting. Things are put together well but not so easily it all connects straight away, you do dig and have to prove the theories you think before submitting the answer . We really enjoyed this one and will be doing more!

Absolutely incredible - there is just enough information that you can piece the clues together but not so much that each step is obvious.The effort that has been put into this is phenomenal, everything looks legitimate and the tiny details like making the paper jagged, so it looks like it's been ripped from a notebook is just another aspect that feeds the imagination.Unfortunately, it can only be played once but it is worth the price for the hours of fun.Also, the ability to be able to do it solo is fantastic for me as the majority of people I know don't enjoy this kind of thing - that just means more puzzles for me though!

Great case file! Really fun to do!

Super fun! Did this for my daughters bday and we loved it. Did it in just under 2 hours! Great evidence provided.

Really great experience! All the help needed if you run out of ideas. Only thing was that our order had duplicate photos and was missing one piece of evidence. Apart from that it was great.

This was the second game from this company that we've played, and it was just as much fun as the first. You've really got to make sure that you're paying attention to all of the evidence pieces that you find, as missing just one clue might make you get the answer wrong! We really enjoy these games and will definitely be ordering more of them, the way they're assembled is great, realistic booklets/newspaper clippings/photographs etc, and they're so much fun to play. Highly recommended!

This cold case mystery game was far more immersive than I expected. It comes with a mix of “evidence” — like suspect interviews, crime scene photos, newspaper clippings, and handwritten notes — all designed to feel authentic. The attention to detail really pulls you into the story.Solving the case takes actual deduction — this isn’t just reading and guessing. You’ll need to cross-reference timelines, spot contradictions, and piece together clues. I played it with a friend over a couple of evenings, and it felt like being real detectives.There are no spoilers or shortcuts — when you solve it, you know you earned it. A great choice for anyone who enjoys puzzles, true crime podcasts, or story-driven games.

Absolutely loved doing this, took us a little while as it was only two of us and we had never done it before but you soon get the hang of it! Very detailed and was so fun to do, definitely will be buying another one!
