Dinner Guests
A story roleplaying game about a dinner party at a lavish mansion that turns into a murder mystery, drawing on classic mystery fiction and dark comedy. Players portray suspects such as an aging lord, a spoiled heir, or a confused house guest as they uncover motives and resolve the crime. The game uses vignettes, interrogations, interludes, and ensemble scenes to develop the story. It is a zero-prep, GMless game for three or more players, using a deck of poker cards and tokens to track drama points. Larger groups produce longer sessions.
