Cryptic Killers: Murder of a Magician
A magician's final vanishing act ends in murder. Can you solve it?
Legendary magician Elvis Boone is back for one last show before retiring. During the grand finale Elvis vanishes, but he never reappears. His body is found backstage with a blood-covered sword from an earlier trick lying beside him. Boone had no shortage of enemies, from rival magicians to disgruntled employees, but with seemingly no way for the killer to escape, it's as if they performed their own vanishing trick.
Inside the case file you'll find 34 pieces of physical evidence: newspaper articles, crime scene police reports, photographs, blueprints, witness statements and more. Alongside the physical evidence you'll need to gain access to an online inbox to help you decide which suspects are innocent and which are guilty, and it's not easy; you'll need to be a smart investigator to get in. If you can't crack the case without a secret clue, hints and the answer are available online.
With roughly two and a half hours of play and a difficulty rating of 3.5 out of 5, this whodunnit-style thriller makes a great night in for individuals, couples, groups and parties. Murder mystery lovers and CSI fans will relish this challenging brain teaser, whether it's a couples night, a family games night or a dinner party with friends.

Important Notes:
1. Meeple Stars can be earned on retail merchandise purchased through both our webstore and café shop.
2. Most of our prices include VAT at 20%. Meeple Stars are not earned on the VAT
portion of the price. For example, if you buy a game for £50, you'll earn Meeple Stars on the net amount of £41.67 (the remaining £8.33 goes to HMRC), which would give you 125 Meeple Stars.
3. Cover charge payments and food and drink purchases at the café do not qualify for
Meeple Stars.
4. Meeple Stars can be redeemed either during webstore checkout or when purchasing games
at the café. Each discount can only be applied to a single purchase. If the value of the item is less than the discount amount, the remaining balance will be forfeited.
5. Discounts cannot be used for shipping costs, only for merchandise.
