New Year's Eve with friends

A murder mystery for New Year's Eve

Countdown, champagne, and one of your friends is lying. Murder MyStory turns your New Year's Eve dinner at home into a murder mystery where everyone plays, the host included.

Why it works on New Year's Eve

  • It fills the long evening before midnight: the story runs over the courses and the reveal lands before the countdown.
  • Everyone plays, even the host, nobody is stuck running the game.
  • Ready in about 5 minutes, so it works even if you decide on 30 December.
  • Every guest gets a character written around them, on their own phone. No printing, no app to install.

How the night runs

You pick the mix, era, theme and tone (a 1920s masquerade ball is a New Year's favourite). You tell us a little about each guest, and we write a character for each of them.

On the night, you tap Next after each course. Every phone gets new clues and secrets. The murder happens during dinner, and before midnight everyone accuses who they think did it.

What it costs

€10 for the game plus €2 per guest. A table of 10 costs €28, about a third of a printed murder mystery box.
