Unsolved murder mystery game - Cold Case Files Investigation - CRYPTIC KILLERS - Detective Evidence & Crime File - individuals, date nights & party games- "Murder in Market Hill"

Wasn't sure how much fun this would be but now I am hooked. A great date night game that is challenging and engaging. Will definately be buying more for gifts, very affordable entertainment!

I was skeptical at first. I’m a HUFE FAN of a game series called “Unlock” and a series called “Sherlock,” and I was nervous that those games had ruined any possibility of a good new game series for me to start… MAN WAS I WRONG! What a fun idea! This game is a great single player or group game. The set up is really what brings it together. First showing up in an evidence bag!!!! Then everything inside the evidence folder looks (I assume) as if it were a real case file. Photos, mail, witness reports, police records, they really go all out. You can tell a lot of love and time was put into this game. There is a bit of an online aspect to it as well. If you get stuck, the hints are easy to use and well designed for the game. I liked this game so much I bought 4 more. For the price it’s not bad, and the game doesn’t get ruined after one play so I can share it with my family. (That’s my favorite part about a good game, sharing it.)

This is the third game I’m playing of theirs! I’m obsessed !! Got my husband roped in too. This was his second game. He’s loving it too!! This was tad bit on the difficult side. According to the game designer it’s a 5/5 difficulty. This gets your brain juices going!! Great great fun game! Loved it.

This was the most challenging yet (my family and I have played them all). Like a great crime novel with plenty of twists and turns, it kept us guessing until the very end. A solid 3-4 hours of entertainment that engages my teenager's brain and gets us all thinking and collaborating in meat space with paper--a rare treat in today's digital age. Can't wait for the next one!

Loved the puzzle, code breaking, and new nuggets of double agency. Pulling the pieces for the final answer was a bit of a stretch, but enjoyed the time solving the murder!

Genuinely one of the better murder mystery games out there on the market. My sister's and I play a lot of these kinds of game and and either the stories are weird and don't line up with the murder that happened or there is mistranslation which makes it a little harder for you to figure out or the entire story is just trash. This story was engaging, a little challenging, but so worth it for the money. There's a website you can use and need to use to figure out what's happening and I don't think I've had so much fun playing a murder mystery until now. The creators did an amazing job with this one and I'll definitely be buying the others to play too. PS: -0.5 because there isn't a difficulty scale which, isn't necessary but I think it might help those who want an easier story than some of the others.

This was our 5th murder mystery with CK, and it was the most challenging yet. We really enjoyed that this one was split into two parts. Our prime suspects change based off of evidence accumulated, and its more realistic when you don't have all the evidence immediately. The games are a reasonable price and we get excited when they go on sale. We really enjoyed this one and can't wait to do another one.

LOVED this game. It was difficult to figure out so I followed — Co-op for Two — on You Tube. I could read along at my own pace, then tune into the group, then read more and tune in again. It was exciting and fun to compare my guesses to theirs. I would buy all the Cryptic Games.

Not too difficult to grasp and lots of fun. Some of the clues need you to use some thought and others are straightforward. Gets you thinking, great fun.

I loved other games from this company but this one was nearly impossible!!!!!

I recently got the "Murder In Market Hill" case file kit from Cryptic Killers as a birthday gift for my partner, and it turned out to be an incredible experience! We both thoroughly enjoyed collaborating together, piecing together clues, and ultimately solving the crime. The kit was well-crafted with detailed evidence and an engaging storyline that kept us hooked from start to finish. The quality of the materials and the thought put into each aspect of the case made the experience immersive and exciting. We felt like real detectives, sifting through the evidence and forming theories until we finally cracked the case. It was the perfect blend of challenging and fun, making for a memorable and enjoyable evening. I can't recommend this enough - 10/10 for sure! We're already looking forward to diving into more case files from Cryptic Killers. If you're looking for a unique and entertaining activity to do with a partner or friends, this is it.

Really fun to do as a date night.
