Great mystery to solve!
This is such good value and quality. After doing a few of there types of things this is the best quality wise I’ve come across. The attention to detail and level of effort that’s gone into making the “evidence” is amazing. I love that you are essential left to get on with investigating without having to add info in or check in. You are just investigating the evidence, piecing it together gradually and working on it as a case file, then when you think you’ve solved it submit your answer. It’s really clever and interesting. Things are put together well but not so easily it all connects straight away, you do dig and have to prove the theories you think before submitting the answer . We really enjoyed this one and will be doing more!

Not recommending
Classical principle „cross out all other suspects and who is left is the killer”, no additional envelopes, case is linear, and too overwhelmed with texts you need to read, much of which has nothing to do with case

A blast for a family of diverse folks
Our family with grown kids and significant others did this cold case after Christmas this year. We are a diverse group with very different interests and participation levels. In a nutshell, this was a blast. Everyone participated reading through the materials provided and summarizing info to get the important facts. There were photos - very period appropriate taped on the walls and all the materials spread all over the table. The quality was exceptional. Newspaper articles looked authentic. Witness statements, etal were very realistic. It is necessary to logon to get “updated” evidence to be able to solve the mystery. We were able to solve it but it took a full 3 hours and was a fun challenge. The kids asked when we could do another one - always the sign it was good. I would highly recommend to anyone who would find this activity fun. Well worth it.

Clever, Challenging, and Addictively Fun
I’ve played three of the Cryptic Killers games so far, and I’ve genuinely enjoyed every single one. They strike the perfect balance between fun and challenging—just difficult enough to make you think, but never frustrating to the point where you want to give up. The creativity in the puzzles really stands out. Each game feels unique, and I love how they keep you engaged with clever clues and interesting twists. You can tell a lot of thought went into the design and storytelling. If you enjoy puzzle or mystery games that make you think outside the box, I would definitely recommend giving Cryptic Killers a try. I’m already looking forward to playing more!
