Polar Express Christmas Train Murder Mystery Game Kit

A good way to make a regular dinner a bit more exciting. Very well organized with the playbook, audio files, character books etc. though, the individual rounds felt a bit repetitive. However, I would do it again. Thanks!

I realized after buying it that it would not work for our Christmas Eve gathering because it took too long to complete it. I used a few of its features and some murder mystery brain games to make it work for a 15-20 minute post dinner game with eight participants.

We had a fun time overall, and the characters made us laugh. This was my first murder mystery, so I don’t have much to compare it to, but I did feel that the evidence and dialogue didn’t quite give enough clues to identify the poisoner. I would have enjoyed more chances to really sleuth and solve it.
