Before you open the first mystery
How do I get it?
Right after checkout you get an email with the link to your library page: every file, plus Play on your phone. Nothing is shipped.
Do I need a printer?
No. You can play on your phone or tablet. If you like paper, every file prints on US Letter or A4, one mystery at a time.
Can I play on my phone, iPad or Android tablet?
Yes. The phone version runs in your browser (iPhone and Android), nothing to install: tap a name to cross it out. On iPad, open the PDF in GoodNotes, Notability or any PDF app and cross out names with your pencil; tabs and bookmarks jump you between the clues and the guest book. On Android tablets use any PDF app, such as Xodo or Adobe Acrobat Reader.
How many people can play?
One, or two to eight. Solo, you hold all the clues. In a group, the Clue Cards are dealt out, everybody crosses out names in their own Guest Book (printed or on their phone), and the first to name the thief wins. A wrong guess just costs you your next turn.
Is it safe for kids?
There are no murders, no blood and nothing scary: a stolen star, a vanished gingerbread cottage, a switched snow globe. It's for ages 8 and up, though it's designed to challenge grown-ups too, so younger players may want a teammate.
How long does each mystery take?
Mystery 01: about 30 minutes. Mystery 02: 40 to 60 minutes. Mystery 03: one or two evenings. Mystery 04: two or three evenings.
How much do I have to print?
Nothing, if you play on your phone or tablet. On paper you print one mystery at a time. Solo: Mystery 01 is 17 pages, 02 is 32, 03 is 57 and the big one, 04, is 96, so most people play that one on a phone or tablet. In a group each player needs a Guest Book (9, 24, 49 or 85 pages; the big ones also come two pages per sheet), plus 2 to 4 pages of Clue Cards to cut out.
Can I give it as a gift?
Yes. A printable Gift Card is included. Print it, write To and From, and when it's time forward your download email to your recipient. One gift per purchase.
Do I have to play it on Christmas Eve?
No. Play any evening in December, at a holiday party, or over a long snowy weekend. The Party Kit works for any gathering.
Where are the solutions? What if I get stuck?
Each mystery has a spoiler-free Checkpoints file that tells you how many names should be left after every clue, and a separate sealed Solution file with the thief's confession. Use the checkpoints first; if you're still stuck, email us and a real person will help.
What if it's not for me?
Full refund within 30 days, no questions. And if a mystery beats you, we'll walk you through it.
The cocoa is hot. The thief is waiting.
