This was a great Mystery Dinner party. My guests loved the dialogue written out for them in their character booklets. I would have liked it if Clair Voyant and Father Al Fredo, the extra guests, had more speaking points and more clues of their own to give out, but they were content with their roles. The characters had a few good relationship stories, so it was fun to invite couples to play the characters who were in love in the storyline. The CD tends to repeat some of the same information, but it serves as a good recap. I wish the host booklet would come with more information about the characters instead of just recipes. The CD could have also included a few tracks just with music, to help set the mood.

We had played several murder mystery dinner party games in the past, but most of our guests had not. This game is a good choice for beginners and those who are shy about participating in an interactive game. A CD audio introduction sets the scene and a script is provided at the beginning of each round to help the players get into the mood and to provide some clues. I'd recommend that the host read the rules and intro before the guests arrive so he/she can more easily manage the flow between the sections and rounds. The written materials are a little confusing for the players. The script is set in first person and later clues are presented in third person. It's best to prepare the players for that. Also, unless you do some rewriting, it's better as a game for 6. The 2 "extra" players are not included in the scripts.
I would say it fits as a Fat Brain toy because, despite some flaws, it provides guidance on hosting a great party. Menus are even included, although we chose to make our own favorites. You can certainly add your own creative touches. We outlined the body on the floor (using masking tape), picked up some inexpensive red and white checked material for tablecloths, printed menus for our "restaurant," and learned a smattering of Italian that sounded pretty darned good to us, especially after a couple bottles of Chianti.
We had a LOT of fun, but this is "not" the game to choose if you seriously need to test your skills of deduction. It "is" the game to choose if you want to host a unique and fun filled social event using a murder mystery theme.

I have read over the material in the game. We plan on using it for a Mystery Dinner on Valentine's Night.
