Why we win

Most others sell papers in a folder. We sell a case that plays like a series.

Most murder mystery games at home are printed case files or online databases, at best with some video interrogations or a hint website. We add everything a player would see in a real investigation, and we do it in every language.

Film in every case

A cinematic intro, a news report and films from the investigators. The case plays like a series, not a stack of paper.

Phones, laptops and other things to investigate

Messages, photos, inboxes, calendars and passwords. Players open the same devices the detectives did.

Live websites inside the story

Real, clickable sites for hotels, clubs and companies in each case, with clues hidden in plain sight.

A beautiful full-colour gift file

The outer packaging is printed in full colour and makes a perfect gift, instead of the traditional brown envelopes.

A team you come back to

The same investigators return in every case. Customers buy the next one for the team as much as for the crime.

Built with police and lawyers

Every case is developed with input from police officers and lawyers, so the investigation feels real and the solution is fair.

This is the difference

Not only papers. A whole investigation you step into.

Films with the technicians, the coroner and the police

Not only papers like regular murder mystery games: we take it further. The investigators walk you through the evidence on film.

Search the victim's phone

Messages, calls, notes and photos. Find the code in the game and open up new material.

Search the computers

Inboxes, calendars and locked folders on the victim's and suspects' laptops. This one opens with code 917, the two shirt numbers in the football photo among the evidence.

Death in the Mist cover

Death in the Mist

Döden i dimman

The elk hunt at Ravnberga begins as it always has, with fixed posts and radio silence. When the drive is over, Gustav Falkenswärd is missing, and he is found dead at his post. What looked like a hunting accident soon points to something much darker.

One Last Toast cover

One Last Toast

En sista skål

Johan Rydell is found dead at home after an evening that first seems to have ended in an accident. On the table: whisky, two glasses and traces of a meeting someone would rather not admit to. Behind the quiet villa are conflicts, money, old relationships and people who each have their own version of the evening.

Till Death Do Us Part cover

Till Death Do Us Part

Tills döden skiljer oss åt

Alexander Falk is found dead at his own wedding at Björkudden manor. In the study: champagne glasses, an open safe and traces pointing in several directions. Family, friends and business contacts were all close enough to see something, and several had reason to stay silent.

The One Who Never Came Home cover

The One Who Never Came Home

Den som aldrig kom hem

Daniel Norberg disappears one evening and does not come home. It could be a man under pressure, or a flight from a life that was cracking. But his phone keeps moving, a bank card is used, and digital activity continues after his normal life has stopped.

The Last Dinner cover

The Last Dinner

Den sista middagen

Henrik Dahl is found dead in the library of the mountain hotel Stormklippan after a dinner where five people from his past sat together. On the desk: old notes, a whisky glass and traces of a secret someone has tried to bury since 2004.

The Last Kick cover

The Last Kick

Den sista sparken

Marcus Levin is found dead in the dojo after a late training session. He was the club's big name, used to winning and to others stepping aside. It first looks like an accident, but behind the discipline and the polished image are old conflicts that never went away.

Behind the Mask coverCore case

Behind the Mask

Bakom masken

Professor Leander Dahlén is found dead in an exclusive university library after an academic masquerade evening. Cameras show an anonymous figure in a tuxedo, gloves and mask. In the room: research material, old rivals and traces of a project about identity and perception.

The Spa Murder coverAuthor edition

The Spa Murder

Spamordet

Nordvik Industries celebrates thirty years at the exclusive Havsvik Resort & Spa on Gotland. In the middle of the jubilee evening, CEO Amelia Rask disappears, and is found lifeless in the private hydro suite Hydro 2. Behind the polished surface: secret relationships, financial conflicts, old lies and an environmental scandal that never quite went away. A Maria Wern case, created with Anna Jansson.

Sudden Death coverAuthor edition

Sudden Death

Sudden Death

It is 3–3 when Stockholm Panthers and Göteborg Titans head into sudden death in a decisive play-off match at Hovet, but overtime never starts. Head referee Martin Högberg vanishes during the break and is found dead in the inner parts of the arena. A player has threatened him, an enraged supporter has got in where he should not be, and behind closed doors are conflicts over injuries, careers and money. A Maria Wern case, created with Anna Jansson.

The Golf Murder coverAuthor edition

The Golf Murder

Golfmordet

Claes Wernberg, successful property developer and chairman of the exclusive Lindövik Golf Club, is found dead at hole 7 early one morning. Behind the club's polished facade are conflicts over money, power, relationships and a controversial future project, and several people seem to lie about what they did on his last evening. A case for Ewert Truut, with Carolina Herrera and Richard Kahn, created with Dag Öhrlund, including newly written novel scenes.

Murder in Lofsdalen coverDestination

Murder in Lofsdalen

Mordet i Lofsdalen

During an evening of skiing in Lofsdalen, Martin Eklund is found lifeless in the snow just after the night skiing ends, his ski equipment beside him. It all seems to point to a tragic accident, but the times do not add up, several people close to him have reason to lie, and technical findings make the simple explanation harder to believe. Created with Lofsdalen.

Death in Stöten coverDestination

Death in Stöten

Döden i Stöten

One evening in Stöten, Anton Bjurén is found lifeless in the snow shortly after the ski lifts close for the day. At first it looks like a tragic accident, but the more the material is examined, the harder that explanation is to believe. Created with Stöten.

The Camping Murder coverDestination

The Camping Murder

Campingmordet

During a quiz night at First Camp, the quiz host Viktor Hallberg disappears, and when he is later found dead the relaxed camping evening turns into a murder investigation. Several people had reason to confront Viktor, and their stories do not add up. Created with First Camp.

Every release is translated and filmed in every market language.

The team

A close-knit team you will want to see again.

The same investigators return in every mystery. They tease each other, argue over the evidence and grow on you with every case you solve. Customers come back for the team as much as for the crime.
