Hi Tim,

Sorry for the long silence.  Its been a hectic Christmas and New year.  I have been meaning to touch base with you and first of all thank you for your prompt and very informative response to my original email; and secondly for writing such a wonderfully delightful murder mystery that everyone at my party enjoyed.  My husband and I decided to go with "The Pungent Pumpkin Poisoner"  despite the larger group of people, and it was a smashing success.

My family loves detective stories and mysteries, both in print and on TV.  So they were both intrigued and excited about attending the event.  I picked one member from each family to play one of the 7 roles and asked all the rest (the investigative team) to dress as their favorite detective.  We had Hercule Poirot, Miss Jane Marple, Columbo, Sherlock Holmes and the teenage girls dressed as Charles Angels!  It was a riot!!!   My brother in law played Inspector Brown.  My sister (who played Mavis Cheek) correctly solved the mystery.  It was most hilarious to watch her (she is such a prude), struggle with her lines as she had to go up to Lloyd and say "“Mmm, I wouldn’t mind a taste of your salami!”  She choked on the words several times and said "My I just cant say this line" - and all of us just howled in laughter!  When she finally got the words out, it was even more funny!!!  Everyone totally got into the role of their character and had a blast.  Needless to say, for the rest of the Christmas week, at every occasion we met, we were all called by our new character names.

I got so many raving reviews about the event.  My sister called me after the party, to tell me that her husband, who usually gets bored at our multiple family gatherings (this was the 4th night in a row that we were all meeting), had such a grand time.  That for those 3 hours, he totally forgot about work and the stresses of life and unwound and enjoyed himself  He played Inspector Brown to perfection.

This is an email I received from my uncle:

"Thanks so much for the lovely dinner followed by a mind boggling, head spinning, nose diving, heart pounding, brain picking - Sherlock Holmes murder mystery. I just can't believe I was sitting next to that killer all the time."

Needless to say, everyone wants to do it again. Thank you for the flowcharts that we all stuck to closely once we got the hang of what we were supposed to do. The instructions were very clear and the color coding perfect.  Please do keep me informed if you have any sales or specials on your mysteries.  I thought I read something about it in one of the reviews. Also, please feel free to use parts or all of my email in your feedback/review section or if you'd like for me to write something in particular, I would be happy to.

Thank you for making for a memorable night!

Hi Tim, happy new year!

We used the "The Merrymurder Wine Tasting Game" murder mystery last night with great success.

All in all an excellent evening was had by all.

Many thanks

Hi there!

I just wanted to thank you for your
"The Pungent Pumpkin Poisoner"  game.  I used it for my 23rd birthday party.

The enthusiasm which everyone put into the storyline was brilliant.  I had my friends and work colleagues doing accents and facial expressions that I could never have imagined coming from them.  We all gasped and oohed and aahed at new clues and confessions.

We really had a fabulous time playing your game and everyone was raving about it for days afterwards.  2 hours flew by in hysterics for us!

I've already had 2 people from my group ask me when our next Murder Mystery Party will be so I'll be trolling your site for another one soon!

Hi Tim,

I have played two mystery games before. One, twenty years ago, was a boxed game, one regularly seen in Australia; I organised it at home. The second time a restaurant organised a night using the same brand of boxed game. I found your "The Pungent Pumpkin Poisoner" game much more enjoyable!

The instructions were clearer and people had a more even role to play.  I think most guests suspected themselves of committing the murder.  People certainly had strong opinions on who the murderer was!

There were also a lot of clues.  And the drama was heightened when people hammed up their roles.  I was taken by surprise when mild-mannered people acted out their parts  really well and created some dramatic performances.  All in all the evening was a great success!

Hi Tim,

We played
"The Pungent Pumpkin Poisoner" last week end and it was sooo much fun!
Thanks a lot for your website, we will definitely be buying a game next time.

Dear Tim:

Just writing to tell you that last night, we played our fourth Merry Murder game, The Cutting It Killer, and we had a blast!  I was trying to decide on what my annual Halloween murder mystery game would be this year, and I just couldn't find something I liked.  Normally we do a themed game with witches, ghosts, etc. like your 10 Little Vampires game.  After tossing a few ideas around, I took another look at this game and realized it had what I was looking for.

Without giving anything away, the plot involves a movie director that used to make slash and gore horror movies, another guest with a gory makeup effects background, the film premiere of a scary movie, and a hypnotism scene that was priceless!  I simply explained to my guests that the movie premiere was set to release on Halloween, and that the party originally was to be a celebratory "wrap" party for the film, and thus the guests were to come in Halloween costumes.  Of course, with the murder, it turned out to be an investigation, but with a Halloween theme.

It worked out great.  As always, we never laughed so much.  Round Three was a blast, with two of my guests involved in a small chase scene around the room.  (Granted, I think the Sangria helped). We are really enjoying your Merry Murder games and my guests keep complimenting the rich plot details you add.  It's also nice, at the end of the night, as the solution is revealed, to hear "oh, yes that's right," or "darn, that was staring me right in the face," type of comments, as your games come to a logical conclusion.  And, as always, the investigation panel is a host's dream.  If last minute guests beg to come, or as in my case, some fail to show up, the panel becomes a lifesaver.

Actually, most of my panel couldn't make it, so I had one poor guest play the entire panel.  This actually was hysterical, as she asked all the questions and played all the mystery witnesses. It got laughs all around and still worked out great.  Needless to say, she didn't feel left out of the fun at all.  These games are great ways to spend an evening and we just have a ball.  Thanks again for creating such quality games.  After the holiday rush dies down, we'll be doing The Easter Extravaganza this April!  We can't wait!

Dennis Pascale - South Plainfield, NJ, USA

P.S.  Your yearly sales are a great value and now I'm happy to own all of your games.  Now the problem is always deciding which one to do next.  And as always, please feel free to use any of my comments.  I don't mind spreading the word.

Hi Tim

Thank you very much for the effort that you put into these murder mysteries.  I purchased five games last year.  I have up till now played the free game "The Pungent Pumpkin Poisoner", "Randy Butt - RIP" & "The Murder of Mrs Whyte".  All of these were a sure hit with my friends and everyone is in agreement that these are decent murder mysteries, not at all the flaky thin story lines you buy in toy stores.

I am really happy with my purchases and I still have "Natural Porn Killers", "The Wake of Humpty Dumpty" and "The Merrymurder Pantocrime" to go!

Thought I'd just drop you a mail to say thank you once again.

Kind Regards

Just wanted to let you know that last night, I hosted my third merrymurder game, "Natural Porn Killers"!  As always, it was a huge success, my family and friends never laughed so much!  It was such a hit and so easy to set up.  Again, the game materials, especially the flow charts and easy instructions, kept things running smoothly.  I don't know where you get your ideas from, but the theme intrigued all my guests and the dialogue was hilarious. So much more fun and interesting than the standard boxed games.  The investigation panel also worked out great. T hey were just as much part of the action, and they enjoyed every minute of it.  Your games, as I've said before, are great with their details.  It's a nice mix of discussing facts and very funny dramatics.  Our last round was a riot, with two of the suspects locked in a verbal sparring match.  I think they went off on their own...the script got them going and then they ad-libbed some great one-liners!

All in all, the evening was a huge success!  I decorated the gaming area in pirate themes and dinner was a buffet, making it easier for me to host.  I added a few "erotic treats" which my guests enjoyed, with a few laughs as well.  Some of my party treats that I handed out included flavored condoms and flavored lube - They loved it!  Yes, it's one of your more adult parties, but I had my mom and other close relatives in attendance and they all enjoyed the game.  As you state on your web site, it's nothing that broad minded adults would find offensive.  So again, thanks for another fun-filled evening.  Now my only problem is trying to decide which of your games to host this summer.  So many great scenarios to choose from.  Please feel free to use my comments on your site.  I've already spread the word about your games to other people and they are jumping at the chance to host a game.  All the best to you.

Dear Tim,

We played your game 'The Murder of Mrs Whyte' on New Year's Eve as planned and it was fantastic fun.  Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves and had a great laugh!  The murderer guessed that they were 'it' before being told in the booklet of their guilt and only one other player guessed correctly so, 2 out of 8 were correct.  We even had a real live C.I.D. officer in our party and he didn't guess the murderer - hmmmm!

I planned the 'rounds' in between courses of food and the whole evening ran so well.  Everyone wore evening dress but in a style of their characters, so the evening was off to a fun start before the game began.  We would all recommend anyone considering playing one of your games to go ahead with confidence.  From my part of the organiser - I suggest you allow yourself a little time to sit and familiarise yourself with the running of the production to make it easier once you start the game.  Also allow plenty of time to print off and assemble the character booklets.  That said, it was all such good fun with everyone saying so throughout the evening and they have all called me subsequently to thank me again for deciding upon and planning our murderous New Year's Eve party.

Hi Tim,

Just a short note to say that I held 'The 'Wake of Humpty Dumpty' on Friday and what a brilliant night.  I must say I was very worried about the evening hoping that it would be a success and it certainly was.  My guests asked me what they should wear and I said that it was not a fancy dress and to just make a small effort.  Well, all my 12 guests came in the best fancy dress you could see, Old King Cole being in a full king's outfit, Polly Flinders in a torn long dress and so on, everyone made an effort.  The funniest guests were Tom Tom and Old Mother Hubbard.  Tom Tom looked like a teenage hoodie with track suit bottoms half down his backside and a can full of bangers and Old Mother Hubbard looked like a 50's cleaning lady.

Half way through the first round I actually thought that it would be a very long funny evening as every guest was exaggerating their role which I must say was brilliant!. The evening was one of the funniest and most successful evenings we have had. There were 13 of us 'rugby' friends and a good time was had by all.  Over the last week I have had many comments on how the evening was brilliant and that they were all a bit sceptical at first and not really looking forward to it.  However, all the comments I received were brilliant. The flow charts were excellent and added to my confidence of running the game.  Thank you Tim for this game, I will certainly be purchasing another in the future.

Hi Tim

Well what fun we had with "Orgy of Death"!  It was GREAT!  There was 19 of us in total with an amazing Cleopatra and an even more amazing Livia... looking a little like Amy Winehouse!  Hung-Lo sported a lovely pair of low hanging red "balls".... and everyone really got into the spirit.

The food went down well too... we'd tried to theme a bit although Roman feasts we found used ingredients like dormouse, parrot and giraffe... so we had to substitute a bit.

We made real clues - so the card ones were replaced with a bowl of dates and we even had condoms in 3 separate dishes all labelled up etc etc. To complete the decor and set the scene we had an array of "toys" including whips, strap-ons and paddles... amazing what people have in their cupboards when you ask around!

Only one person missed a reply (possibly due to the alcohol consumed!), but the flow chart rescued us and soon got us back on track.

Just wanted to say we loved it and everyone had a great night!  I’m sure we’ll be back again in the not too distant future for another game as everyone really loved it and we do tend to socialise rather a lot!

Thanks again

Dear Tim

I recently hosted your merrymurder “Orgy of Death” – and it was a great success. The first round was a bit wobbly until everyone got the idea (but this was because it was their first murder mystery for most of my guests, and English is not our main language here.  Ok, and  I admit the mojitos might not have helped either!), but it was a riot after that - I had several requests for the website!

Many thanks for a great evening!

I am a huge fan of Murder Mysteries and I was "dying" to find a great murder mystery that was online and that was free.  This is when I stumbled upon "The Pungent Pumpkin Poisoner".  It was awesome.  I will never forget the moment where I tried to run away after my friend said "Pal, you're nicked!" and the girl we had playing Lloyd chased me down and caught me. Your murders perfectly combine intrigue, humor, red herrings, good plot, and fun.

I am about to buy the "Slaughter at the Circus" game to do at my birthday party, and my friends have come such a long way when it comes to murder mysteries that they're fighting over who gets to be a suspect.  I love your formatting of the color coded charts and the first person speaking; it made your murder mystery stand out from all the companies that we tried.  One of the greatest parts was the ending;  no one got it right but we were still all very satisfied with the answer and felt dumb for not figuring it out!  Please feel free to use my comment to get other people to buy!! -Coz

Hi Tim.  We played "Natural Porn Killers" which was hysterical and we had such a fab time playing it! I think you do need to give the flow chart to somebody who has had the least to drink tho!!! 5 Stars!  Great value and we look forward to playing the pumpkin one this Halloween.  Many thanks.  And please use my comments, as it was an excellent game!

Just to let you know that "Cards on the Table" went down really well over Christmas and was appreciated by all.  Everyone applauded its informative content which kept our attention at all times.  It was easy to follow.

Stacks better than the box-game equivalents!

Dear Tim,

Thanks so much for the updated "Slaughter at the Circus" game, I really appreciate it. The new improvements make hosting the parties that much easier. Your games are actually the first mystery games that really do "run themselves" so to speak. I forgot how much fun this game was, now definitely excited.  Will keep you posted how it goes this summer. Thank you again.  It's always a pleasure.

(Note - Dennis was "redoing" Slaughter at the Circus after buying it a couple of years ago.  I sent him the improved version with colour coding and flowcharts so he could do it again in summer 2010)

Dear Tim,

We did your "Murder at the North Pole" with 18 people.  It was wonderful, and everyone can't wait to do another.  Much simpler than others we have done.  Loved the flow charts.  Very funny and we had a ball dressing up.  Nicely done, Thanks.

We enjoyed our merrymurder immensely!  We used it as part of our Halloween party with a multinational group of friends. The color coding and the flow charts made it easy to follow, even for a bunch of drunken professors!  I especially appreciated the fact that you'd printed the color name in addition to using the color. Color printers are hard to find here - actually printers are hard to find. I had it printed in black and white and was then able to use markers to add the colors. Even our friends who have a first language other than English found it easy to follow and to participate fully!

The group gave it rave reviews and said they would love to try another. You'll be hearing from us in the future.

Hello Tim,

Thank you so much for the free download of "The Pungent Pumpkin Poisoner".  We definitely were able to play and it was amazing.  We had so much fun with the characters.  Everyone had a blast.

Everyone was put together in such a fashion that there were no problems in playing the scenes out or understanding what was going on. I have recommended your site to several of our friends. One in particular has received one from you already.

Thank you again for the fun!

We enjoyed our murder mystery immensely! My daughter had a 17th birthday party and we staged the murder mystery for her guests.

I thought it was constructed very well.  The instructions were very easy to follow and the color coding a MUST. Most of the kids at the party are also in the theater and they said they wished all scripts were broken down that way.

I personally thought that it was very well organized, well written, the characterizations were great and it was a joy to perform. We will definitely be looking to Merry Murder again for mysteries.

Our murder mystery game was excellent.  Everyone enjoyed it.  It was easy to understand and very easy to follow. By far the best I've played yet.  No need to change anything, it was great!

Hi there.

We are in South Africa and had  our merrymurder party for my 25th birthday.

We had a few American friends out and they still cant stop raving about the game.

What was meant to be a 10 man game turned out to be 15 and we had loads of laughs!

The instructions were amazing and very easy to follow.... the downloading was magic to my fingertips and the flow charts were definitely welcome as we were all first timers.

Finding this sort of fun entertainment in the shops is impossible as there is simply no one selling these games and definitely a demand for it.

You are a genius and thank you so much for a fun filled game.

Hi Tim,

Just a quick note to let you know about "The Pungent Pumpkin Poisoner" which we played last night.

We managed to gather together 9 of us (none of whom are particularly outgoing and probably all of whom were quite apprehensive about the idea of acting out a murder mystery)

Everyone entered into the spirit of the game and came in costume. This provided everyone with a great laugh even before we started. In respect of the accents, we had (politically incorrect and very dodgy!) Yorkshire for Sir Hamish and for some reason best known to herself, African for Gigi!

We set the scene seated around a table in a "restaurant" (front room!) as per the script, but as it was Halloween, decorated with a Halloween theme (the fact that pumpkins were integral to the game made this easy).

As everyone made an effort with costumes, accents or decorations, then the atmosphere was set before the game even started, the guests felt a lot more relaxed and the game flowed much better.

Quite often, probably due to the excess alcohol, people were missing their cues - this is where the colour coded flowcharts were invaluable. A quick nod or prompt in the right direction soon got things back on track. Anyone who is worried about the game not flowing or missed cues, shouldn't.

We had a short 5-10 minute break after each round and the whole game took us about 3 hours. Even after a 3 hour investigation, no-one present guessed the identity of the guilty party. However when the solution was finally revealed everyone was able to track back over the clues and see how the whole scenario had unfolded. Unlike some other murder mysteries the solution is very plausible and fits perfectly.

Everyone commented afterwards on how much they had enjoyed the evening and even when it was over, they were very reluctant to leave their characters behind!

They are now insisting that they are invited to the next one ("A Merrymurder Pantocrime"), which we are planning to hold around Christmas!

As for myself, as host, I'll feel a lot less nervous about how things will go next time, after seeing how easy last night's game was to play.

Everything was great and we had a fantastic time!

Thanks for a great evening,

What a scream we all had on Halloween night with "Ten Little Vampires".  Brilliant script with some hilarious twists.  We all threw ourselves into it from the off and finished the evening actually believing we had spent our night on Vampire Island. Thanks for thoroughly entertaining us. Rest assured we will be back for more.

Just a quick note to say thanks again for your advice on "Slaughter at the Circus".  We all had a really memorable night (never knew we had such acting talent!)  I'm sure we'll re-visit merrymurder so keep writing!!

Dear Tim,

Just to let you know, I think the new updates to your games are great. The first person answers work a lot easier, and the colour coded flowcharts make running and hosting them simpler and faster...

The colour coded flowcharts and first person responses are a host's dream - especially if you are doing the games during dinner parties and between cooking and serving food you need to keep things running and organised. They're great!

I teach crime scene dynamics and criminal and business law courses. I used your program for the classes and they were amazing. The students got into the roles and even a couple of them were made for their character. It was so much fun. They all had a blast. We also found the flowcharts extremely useful and a great idea.  Please tell your prospective customers you have my wholehearted support and thanks. It was a great time had by all.

I just wanted to let you know that I downloaded your "The Pungent Pumpkin Poisoner" mystery and found it was brilliant!  It was hilarious, well-crafted, the ending was unexpected, and I really enjoyed it.

Dear Tim,

I don't know where to begin, but I hope I don't end up rambling.  Last night, my group of friends and family performed your "Ten Little Vampires" merrymurder game.  It was FANTASTIC!

First off, I think I've written to you in the past, when I first discovered your corner of the web and told you how great your games are.  They are a mystery lovers dream...detailed plots, plenty of humor, great acting stunts to help break up the party and, my personal reason for buying your games, the fact that the solutions are detailed, full of fair-play clues and make sense at the end.  It's not like you just randomly choose a killer, with nothing to justify it.

To top it off, when you announced this title, being a huge Christie fan and a fan of the book "And Then There Were None," I kept stalking your site and when it finally became available, I purchased it.  After printing everything out and reading through the party, I was blown away. You have created such a wonderful homage to the book, using many plot elements, and yet completely made it your own!  Wonderful job!

As for my party, I always love a good Halloween themed mystery, but I was getting tired of my guests playing various monsters at a Transylvanian party type deal.  This was perfect.

The death scenes were very clever and very funny.  My guests died with gusto and loved every minute of it. They all had a great time and said this was the best party yet!  And they really liked the format.

Okay, I've chewed your ear off long enough.  Again, I just wanted to say thank you for an awesome time with friends and family.  Your games are wonderful, easy to download and your personal touches, especially being able to contact you if there are problems, are priceless.  And the flow-charts are a great addition to your games.  Please keep up the good work and I look forward to more Merry Murders in the future.  Feel free to add my comments to your website.  A wonderful game!  Great job.  Totally satisfied!

Dear Tim,

I downloaded my game which we played on New Years Eve.  It was a huge success and thoroughly enjoyed by everyone.

The downloading and printing off of all the paperwork was a doddle and it was easy to print everything without getting information that was likely to spoil the game.  Great game, great site, will definitely be using you again.  Many thanks!

(and when I thanked her for the kind feedback)

No problem if you want to use my comments on the website, I meant every word!!   I've been looking with interest at some of your other games but they all look so good I'm not sure which to choose!!  Thanks again for helping us have such a great evening.

Your "The Merrymurder Pantocrime" game went down very well, I organised it for my husband's 50th. There were 16 of us including one child and three teenagers. Everyone, even the six investigators, dressed up. Tapioca and Dame Trot were played by men and Jack by a woman, which made for some hysterical scenes when their bedroom exploits were admitted!  We all enjoyed ourselves very much. The plot was very well thought out, and all the twists and turns kept us guessing right to the end.  Brilliant. Thanks

Hello Tim,

I recently download "The Pungent Pumpkin Posioner", my wife and I had six of our friends join us.  We had an awesome time everyone dressed in the pre-assigned characters and from the moment they entered they took on their roles.

The reviews from our friends were ecstatic “best fun we’ve had in a long time”, “looking forward to the next time”, “very well laid out”

That’s about it  - a really awesome time and looking forward to make a purchase for the next Murder Mystery.

Good Job!

Hi Tim

Thanks for making it possible for us to have a great evening with "The Wake for Humpty Dumpty" – definitely one to remember.  It took a bit longer than we thought but that was because our team of ‘amateur actors’ insisted on elaborating their parts – possibly too much food and drink to consume as well!

We decorated the ‘court room’ with pictures of Humpty Dumpty and had an Information Wall to summarize the starting position.  I made a CD of nursery rhymes with children’s music and adult music of a related kind (eg Yellow Brock Road - Elton John etc.) all mixed in.  We had a Humpty Dumpty cake. 14 was the maximum number we could sensibly manage in our house and so two guests took two witness parts each in separate rounds.  All the witnesses had props provided to encourage them into their parts.

Finally, just to say that the Round Flowcharts were invaluable.  I could not have run the game without them.  When anyone had not picked up a cue etc having the flow charts meant I could prompt from the sidelines. Good idea.

That’s all there is to say.  Thanks for your help.

Hi ya, we downloaded and played "The Pungent Pumpkin Poisoner" and we had such a great time. The whole game was so easy to download and print off with clear and precise instructions. We didn't match the characters to our guests, we just hid the names on the envelopes and let people choose one.  We had a hairy biker playing the part of Gigi Sparkle (he played the part a little to well I think..lol).  All in all everyone who was there that night said it was the best laugh they had had for a long time and are looking forward to doing another game soon. Thank you  x

Hi Tim

Sorry for the delay in replying since you sent me the game through to play at my birthday do last month but I just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed it. Particularly enjoyed the action scenes with Clifton Curry suddenly dying & then Hamish Hogwash being chased. None of us actually managed to guess the murderer correctly - either the game is very cleverly written or we had consumed too much vino by the end of the 3rd round - a little bit of both I would guess!!

Hi Tim!!!!

Thanks for our murder mystery.  EVERYONE LOVED IT!!!!! The instructions were very clear, I printed it all off and assembled everything fast - so perfect! And the game really played itself.  Pleased to hear that all your games are now written in the 1st person.  When we played ours, especially after a couple of drinks everyone just read the script word for word so it did sound a little strange cos they were reading the bits in 3rd person.  Having everything in the 1st person is definitely an improvement. However everyone took on the character which was a right laugh.
LOL. Oh I tell you everyone loved it they really did!! And we luckily had some wigs for the women to wear so that was funny too!!!
