A birthday party murder mystery with a raja, an opera diva, and a secret killer.
Who it's for
Large groups of nine to twelve willing to commit a full evening to sustained role-play and social deduction.
Not for you if…
You want a shorter session - at up to five hours, this is one of the longer entries in the series and needs real time and commitment.
Vibe's take
Slow-burning and social - the whole evening is conversation and interrogation, with suspicion building gradually as guests compare notes over hours rather than minutes.
Das kopflose Dinner: Geheimnis des Toten gathers a colorful cast of lords, an opera diva, an industrial magnate, and a raja at Lady Lucy Bosworth-Crowley's birthday, until her son is murdered mid-celebration. One guest is secretly the killer, and everyone else has to interview their way to the truth.
