Product Overview

Detective for a Day's Murder on the World Tour turns solving a cold case into the game itself. The setup: the vocalist of a band called Berserk dies onstage during a concert in Amsterdam, police call it an accident, and the case goes cold, until an anonymous letter years later asks the player to reopen it and find who's responsible. Players work through a folder of evidence, newspapers, witness statements, autopsy reports, phone records, maps, and photos, and also go online to check surveillance videos and websites tied to the case. It's built as a realistic, at-home investigation rather than a traditional board game.

  • Case built around a real mystery: a musician's death ruled an accident, reopened years later by an anonymous tip
  • Evidence folder packed with newspapers, witness statements, autopsy reports, phone records, maps, and photos to dig through
  • Digital layer adds to the investigation, with online surveillance videos and websites to examine alongside the physical clues
  • Two-step process: examine the evidence, then look for clues and discuss what's suspicious
  • A different kind of game night activity for anyone who wants to play detective and piece together a case themselves
