Murder party games involve guests playing assigned character roles with one guest as the killer. The host provides background information and a script, and may also provide food. Games can be played with small or large groups and for different occasions.
A murder party game is a type of themed party. The host assigns character roles to guests playing characters according to printed instructions. One guest is the killer and the other guests try to figure out who he is. Many different types of murder mystery party games are available in department stores and online.
The host playing the killer tries to divert the other players’ suspicions. The host sends background information in the invitations about the character and his/her main goals and motivations. A brief background on the character and a note on how he behaves and dresses is also usually included in invitations to a crime-based party game. The host then interprets the information and develops the character, just like an actor does, but the costume is also up to the host to interpret, create and wear to the party.
Once at the party, the host will give each player a script for the evening. It will clearly outline what information to reveal and what to hide from other characters. The host also plays, but has the added responsibility of providing food, starting and stopping game rounds as needed, and making sure everyone knows what to do before moving on to the next round.
Depending on the particular game, murder mystery party games can be played with a small group of people or with hundreds of people. There are types designed specifically for certain groups such as teenagers or business executives. When planning the murder mystery party game, the host should assign any guest who is unsure whether he or she will participate in the non-suspect role. All guests playing suspects will be required to attend for the party to work.
A party game with murders usually involves dinner. The meal must be organized and fast for the guest as he or she is also part of the game. Pre-prepared finger foods and a buffet-style atmosphere are popular in murder party games. The holiday can be celebrated as a New Year, Halloween or other type of celebration. Bed and breakfasts and other entertainment establishments have been known to host murder mystery party games.
