This was a very easy to follow and a great fun evening!!! We laughed a lot and it was a very cost effective way to celebrate a lockdown birthday!
Melissa Frost (verified owner) –
I organised the swinging 60s murder mystery as a suprise Zoom birthday party for my sister. The pack itself was great – with clear instructions and other great optional extras like food and decoration ideas. We had such a fun evening of laughs, suspicion and awful acting. My sister said it was one of her best parties yet! Would definitely recommend!
Miriam Dwek (verified owner) –
We played this Murder mystery on zoom with 7 households and 13 participants aged 15-58 it was such immense fun. We used anonymous voting for best costume, best vibe. We had a Spotify playlist with 60’s songs – thanks to my brother.
I highly recommend this company- my partner correctly guessed the murderer! We had a great time!
Unfortunately can only upload one photo as maximum file size has been reached.

What a great night! Something fun and different to do during lockdown #3. We are part of a theatre group so we loved getting our acting and dressing-up fix. You get so much in the pack and it works really well virtually. Thank you! Would highly recommend.
Kate Thompson (verified owner) –
I organised this for my daughters 13th birthday with her friends. They had a great time. They were a bit confused about all the information to start with but once the party got going they followed along easily. Great way to celebrate a birthday in lockdown.
Note from Maple Mystery Games: since the lady bought this mystery, we have now completely rewritten both the Host Instructions and the Party Booklet instructions.

We really did HAVE A BLAST! 😀
We celebrated a (confined) 40th birthday in a fun and interactive way which made us feel like we were all together again! Laughed so hard at the attempted French and Scottish accents and the dialogue really helped to get us into character. Very well-organised and easy to follow. We highly recommend it!
Kim Perkins (verified owner) –
Absolutely brilliant! Easy to follow instructions, great storyline and worked really well on zoom. We played it for Mum’s virtual birthday party for 12 of us, everyone loved it! Would definitely recommend.
Keith Marley (verified owner) –
We had a great night! Everyone really got into the act and it was really difficult to pick our best outfits and actors. Was slightly nervous as the host as to how it would all play out but I needn’t have been concerned as it is extremely well written and planned out. Just great! Will undoubtedly be heading off to the nineties soon. Thank you!
Rob Charnock (verified owner) –
Good storyline and great fun. The characters are varied and the plot was well thought through that kept everyone guessing right to the end.
I would highly recommend and worked well as a virtual session.
Sean Canham (verified owner) –
We had a thoroughly enjoyable evening with the work crowd, all dressing up and really making a fabulous evening of it. Great script, great casting and a serious laugh. Highly recommended for an evening of total madness.
