The host typed: Marcus, “thinks every game is rigged”, and an inside joke: “Marcus still claims he won the Monopoly game that ended in a shouting match.”

From his booklet

  • “It's rigged. I'm just saying, it's rigged.”
  • “He keeps the score sheet from the 1919 Landlord's Game folded in his wallet. It shows he lost to Dev by eleven pounds. He will take it to his grave, and he will keep claiming he won.”
  • “You won that one fair. Only one, mind.”

Written and painted by Gather & Gasp for a made-up guest list. The names, details and jokes are invented for this example; the portraits and quotes are exactly as they appear in the kit.

Questions? We've got answers.

What do I get?

A complete murder mystery kit written for your group: a host guide with the full solution, a booklet for every character, name tags, and accusation ballots. You download and print it.

I bought credits before. Do they still work?

Yes, exactly as before: 1 credit makes a standard kit and 2 make a premium kit. Credits never expire, and price changes only apply to new purchases.

What's the difference between Standard and Premium?

Every kit is written about your guests: each one gets a character with their name, and one thing you tell us about them makes it into the story. Premium adds a painted portrait of every character, weaves in your inside jokes, and gives each guest a personal subplot with callbacks between them. It's the difference between a great party and a legendary one.

How many players can play?

Anywhere from 4 to 20. The mystery automatically adjusts—more players means more characters, more clues, more suspects. It just works.

Can I get a refund?

Yes. Every kit has a 30-day money-back guarantee: if you're not happy with it, we'll fix it or refund you in full. Just email support@gatherandgasp.com.

Do mysteries ever repeat?

Never. Every mystery is generated fresh. Pick the same theme twice? Different story, different characters, different killer.
