Interactive Murder Mystery Game

The year is 1928 and the flappers and gangsters (that's you) have gathered at The Bees Knees to welcome a new owner of the club. But when he turns up dead (oh my), you'll find yourself in the middle of an investigation. Everyone plays as a sleuth or suspect in "Sinister Speakeasy" but watch out, you might die laughing.
