There's Been A Murder
A murder has occurred in a 1930s country house and every guest is under suspicion while conversation is forbidden. Players hold hidden cards and may not discuss them; on each turn a player chooses one of two cards in hand to play and resolves its unique effect. Cards reveal information indirectly, let players manipulate who holds key roles, and enable the Detective to be used to identify the Murderer. The group cooperates to guide the Detective to the culprit or pass the Murderer to the Confidant; the group loses if the Murderer kills the Witness or the draw deck is exhausted.
