About this deal

The writing, for the most part, is suitably immersive. The evidence reports and more formal files feel methodical and technical, as you would expect, without leaning on jargon which could make it impossible for a layman to follow. It does just enough to respect the role the players are adopting without being unnecessarily obtuse. Zatu has an excellent range of games and for most of them the best prices too. Delivery is always fast and I have never received a game in bad condition. 10/10 would recommend. Also, solving the third objective usually leads to a delightfully janky video of a news report about the case outlining the entire story, which is a nice little reward for beating the game.

Unsolved Case Files - The Cold Case Murder Mystery Game

Along with the case files, the game comes with three bonus envelopes, to be opened when an objective is complete. The first two contain the next objective along with additional pieces of evidence which tend to be helpful in moving the case along, while the contents of the third wrap up the game’s story, often by way of a written confession. Players must complete three objectives, given one after the other. They usually involve finding a discrepancy in the statements provided by suspects or finding something the original detectives overlooked; in the Harmony Ashcroft case, for example, the first objective is to prove the innocence of the suspect who was arrested for the crime. In the Max Cahill case, you need to work out how the killer got to the victim.

Other times, the solution is so glaringly obvious you wonder how the original detectives managed to dress in the morning.
