A murder mystery that runs itself.

Hide printed evidence around the house. Your guests scan it with their phone cameras, interrogate each other in minigames and race to name the killer, while you enjoy your own party.

  • 3–40 players
  • 45–90 minutes
  • Free for up to 6 players

How it works

Print it. Hide it. Play.

  1. I.

    Print your evidence kit

    About 30 numbered QR placards and a join poster on plain paper. Print once and reuse the kit for every party.

  2. II.

    Hide it around the house

    Bookshelves, the fridge door, under the stairs. Ten minutes of hiding and you’re done setting up.

  3. III.

    Press play (or schedule it)

    Guests scan to join, the case opens on every phone and the hunt begins. You get to play too.

Why hosts love it

Everything a game master does, done for you

Boxed murder mystery kits ask one person to run the night with scripts and envelopes. InQuestion hands that job to everyone’s phone.

An AR detective lens

The scanner turns every phone into a magnifying glass. Point it at a placard and the evidence card materialises right on top of it.

Interrogation minigames

The Inspector summons two players at a time to find each other and face off in a 1v1 phone minigame: fishing, lockpicking or fingerprint matching. The winner earns a clue.

It runs itself

Schedule a start time and walk away. Story twists fire on a timer: blackouts, sudden gales, an inspector demanding answers. Last call starts the moment someone cracks it.

Costumes, sorted

Send the invite link a week early. Every guest is assigned a suspect with a costume idea and a catchphrase, so they arrive in character.

Real deduction

Every clue clears a suspect, a room or a weapon. Even a wrong accusation rules something out, so nobody gets stuck and nobody feels lost.

A finale worth gathering for

When the case closes, the killer’s confession plays on every phone. Put the live leaderboard on the TV and watch the room turn on each other.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Do my guests need to download an app?

No. Guests point their normal phone camera at a printed evidence placard and the game opens in their browser. iPhone and Android both work, and nobody has to create an account.

Does someone have to run the game all night?

No. You can schedule a start time and the game runs itself: it deals the evidence, fires story twists on a timer, calls players in for interrogation minigames, announces last call after the first solve and plays the finale on every phone. The host can play too.

How many people can play?

From 3 up to 40. The free tier covers up to 6 players; a Party Pass unlocks up to 40 players for one game.

How long does a game take?

You choose the length when you set it up, from about 45 to 90 minutes. An hour is the sweet spot for most parties.

What do I need to print?

One evidence kit: about 30 numbered QR placards plus a "join the game" poster. Print it once on ordinary paper and reuse it for every party; the game reshuffles what each placard means every time.

Is it scary or gory? Can kids play?

It is a cozy, Agatha-Christie-style mystery: spooky atmosphere, no gore, and motives like inheritances and blackmail rather than adult themes. Most families with kids around 10 and up have no trouble with it.

Can we play more than once?

Yes. The killer, room and weapon are drawn at random every game, and so are the clues on each placard, so a rematch on the same kit is a brand-new mystery.

Your guests are already suspects.
