Product Description

Editorial Review

Put on your own mystery dinner theater: murder's on the menu, and everyone's a suspect in this grownup game for six to eight players. The game includes everything you need to serve up mystery, murder, and fun: a shopping list, menus, and recipes by cookbook author Sandra Gluck; eight party invitations and envelopes; place cards; secret clues; and, best of all, a murder mystery to solve. Just invite your friends to dress up and play the roles of the devious suspects (each with his or her own character booklet with roles and background info): Otto Von Schnapps, Tiny Bubbles, Papa Vito, Marilyn Merlot, Ralph Rottingrape, Hedy Shablee, Bonny Lass, and Bud Wizer. Serve up a meal or light snack, play the (included) cassette tape with its introduction, summary of events, and solution to the crime. Find out who killed California vineyard owner Barry Underwood, and why. --Rebecca Hughes

Durability:    Educational:    Fun:   
OK, I have to first admit that I *love* these kinds of party games. The whole idea of dressing up, hanging out with friends and trying to solve a mystery together while you eat delicious food is just about the most enjoyable way I can imagine to spend with 7 of my best friends. This game makes it so easy! You follow the instructions, hand out the notes to the players, and it's all set! A definite must-have for any fun-loving wine drinker! Perhaps the only drawback might be that some people just don't enjoy these sorts of play-acting games. So choose friends that really have fun with this.

Wine & Murder Evening August 7, 2005
Amazon Verified Purchase
Durability:    Educational:    Fun:   
We purchased this product to host our first murder mystery dinner party. None of the 8 of us had previously participated in one of these games. It was fabulous. Great information, great characters (all 8 of us dressed in costume), interesting plot. I even made wine labels for empty bottles to use as decor to coordinate with the theme of the evening. We can't wait to host another one in the near future. I highly recommend this game, but we didn't use the complicated menus; we chose to serve appetizers, salad, lasagne & cheesecake for dessert.

Durability:    Educational:    Fun:   
Although this murder mystery game set made for a fun evening with friends, it was rather confusing. I recommend reading the first dialogue so that you can get a feel for it, and explain it better to your guests. Also, please let your guests know that if their character booklet says anything about a "clue #x" at any point, have them let the rest know. The "clue" booklets are vital to determining the murderer[ess]. Overall, take time to decide what to say to your guests when explaining how the game runs, and make sure that you don't leave anything out of the explanation.

Good game, but needs a little help...
1. Host/hostess should go ahead and go through all of the dialogue and following questions. Within the questions, words like "You" and "Your" should be changed to "I" or "My". Read more
