The Confetti Cases

Welcome to The Confetti Cases!

Whether the sun is shining, the moon is full, or it's raining too hard to tell, something nefarious is happening. Perhaps you're attending a fancy dinner, conducting routine business, or out enjoying an evening of entertainment. Maybe you're the guest of honor, a con artist, or just in the wrong place at the wrong time. Who can say for sure? Appearances are so often deceptive.

What's clear is that someone has been murdered, and you may be next. After all, you're locked in with the killer.

What is a free form Murder Mystery Party?

There are several kinds of Murder Mystery Parties. Some are formal dinner events at public venues complete with professional actors and scripts; others are much more relaxed private parties where the guests are the murder suspects. What each type of party has in common is that the guests are expected to play the sleuth for the evening: it is a chance to be a detective in a manner far more interactive than merely reading a mystery novel or watching a suspense movie. Free form Murder Mystery Parties are the most flexible and (in our opinion, at least!) the most fun of the various formats.

There is no script or required dialogue; instead, each guest-suspect must assume the identity provided in their information papers and act according to their best interests. In a sense, this is much like improvisational acting- each person has a clearly defined sense of who they are and what they want, but nothing is predetermined. If the same party was run three different times, each time with different players, then there would most certainly be three very different outcomes. 

Free form parties allow the guests to fully assume their new personna and act as they see fit; rather than being limited to solving the initial crime, they can choose to commit a new one and murder one of the other guests. 

   There are 'winners' and 'losers' of a sense: if you live and accomplish your objectives, it was a good night for you! But there is no certain outcome, as the individual players' choices determine the course of the party.This makes free form (also known as freestyle) Murder Mystery Parties a wonderful party option for  creative groups looking to make a wonderful memory!
