Do you accept murder mystery games created by someone else?

by Tracy DiViesti

Hi, I am in the process of creating a murder mystery game that can have up to 14 players; however, more can be added as side characters, such as detectives.

Do you accept and purchase murder mystery games created by someone else?

If you do not, do you have any company you would recommend?

My response:

I mainly concentrate on interactive murder mystery party games here - games that are more like roleplaying games (or larps) than other murder mysteries (often structured around the courses of a dinner). So if yours isn't structured like that, then it doesn't really fit on my site.

Also, I don't actually host the games here. I am an affiliate, and I earn a small commission from sales that are made when visitors click through links on my site. (This doesn't affect the price the customer pays.)

As for other companies, you really need to do some research and find out which company your game suits. There are loads of murder mystery game companies out there, and they all have their own style and are unlikely to be interested in a game that doesn't suit their style.

I have written an article about selling your murder mystery games: click here to read Selling your murder mystery game.

Good luck!
