 Do you drink wine? If so, grab this game!Oct 31, 2001
By Lisa Shea
"medieval swordfighting enthusiast"
OK, I have to first admit that I *love* these kinds of party games. The whole idea of dressing up, hanging out with friends and trying to solve a mystery together while you eat delicious food is just about the most enjoyable way I can imagine to spend with 7 of my best friends. This game makes it so easy! You follow the instructions, hand out the notes to the players, and it's all set! A definite must-have for any fun-loving wine drinker! Perhaps the only drawback might be that some people just don't enjoy these sorts of play-acting games. So choose friends that really have fun with this.

Wine & Murder EveningAug 07, 2005
By Mystery Lover
We purchased this product to host our first murder mystery dinner party. None of the 8 of us had previously participated in one of these games. It was fabulous. Great information, great characters (all 8 of us dressed in costume), interesting plot. I even made wine labels for empty bottles to use as decor to coordinate with the theme of the evening. We can't wait to host another one in the near future. I highly recommend this game, but we didn't use the complicated menus; we chose to serve appetizers, salad, lasagne & cheesecake for dessert.

 A Taste for Wine and MurderMar 04, 2004
Although this murder mystery game set made for a fun evening with friends, it was rather confusing. I recommend reading the first dialogue so that you can get a feel for it, and explain it better to your guests. Also, please let your guests know that if their character booklet says anything about a "clue #x" at any point, have them let the rest know. The "clue" booklets are vital to determining the murderer[ess]. Overall, take time to decide what to say to your guests when explaining how the game runs, and make sure that you don't leave anything out of the explanation.

Hours of FUN!!!Jan 03, 2005

Being the first time ANY of us had ever done a murder mustery game, I was a little concerned...the blind leading the blind so to speak. Everything was laid out in black and white, so for us newbies it was outstanding! Already shopping for the next one!

A Divine MurderAug 03, 2004
By Monica Murphy
"Lymes"
This is a great Murder Mystery Kit. It gives you everything you need to plan and the ideas to present a wonderful dinner and fun night of fun. The menu is planned at 3 different levels, so that you can choose how extravagant or easy you want the evening to be. Their are only 8 characters so extra guests won't have a role, but can dress up in similar attire and still have a great time. I had 10 people and it worked out splendidly. There are recipes that turn out fantastic and I learned to make crackers from scratch. The format doesn't inform you of a lot at once, this way you don't give away too much info at the wrong time. Although you may not know exactly what you are doing till you turn the page, it makes it all the more fun and exciting. I am already planning another...A Murder on the Grill for a summer cookout experience!
Bon Apetit!
