In the land of Allaron, seven adventurers return from a quest to vanquish a corrupt evil and return the Sword of Stormguard to its home. When the sword goes missing and one of the party members ends up dead, the group will discover how intertwined their fates are as they figure out who among them is the killer.

Character List:

Sage - GN: A powerful wizard whose adventures span the corners of Allaron. Their magic is legendary, and their thirst for knowledge is almost as powerful. They gathered everyone together for this quest.

Forest - GN: Forest grew up in The Emerald Woods and became an adventurer–it's strange as their people are not known to travel beyond their home. They believe all things must be in balance, and have a special connection with nature. They came on this quest to assist with vanquishing the evil that was corrupting their home.

Ballad - GN: A bard and entertainer, Ballad is a young, inexperienced adventurer who was eager to join the party. With a taste for reverie and refinement, they held their own in the quest, but are now excited to celebrate the hard-earned victory tonight! Work hard, play hard!

Shank - GN: A mysterious figure and a companion of Forest’s. Not much is known about them, as they mostly seem to keep to themselves and say very few words. They are incredibly handy in a pinch if you need a lock picked!

Faith - GN: A Priest of The Divine Light of Idanah, God of Light and Life. They are a sacred protector of Allaron, always seeking justice, upholding integrity, and fighting with honor. They work tirelessly to defeat evil and cast light onto shadow, letting Idanah light the way to truth.

Thrash - GN: Thrash is a Warrior from outside the city of Stormguard in the Riverhorn Valley. Although they are quick to anger, they are also quick to bond. They enjoy connecting with people almost as much as they enjoy punching and kicking monsters!

Blade- GN: A mysterious warlock that joined the party at the last minute. Their dark magic was instrumental in completing the quest.

Foulplay Games are immersive, interactive murder mystery party experiences. Before the game, players receive a character profile with a backstory, personality traits, and various goals to accomplish. Once the game begins, guests "act" as their character, interacting with others, moving through scenarios, while investigating, bribing, or blackmailing other characters. Then, spoiler alert, a murder takes place! After that, players receive their Goals and Objectives for the rest of the game. The murderer knows they are the killer and is trying to cover their tracks while the other players are trying to figure out whodunnit! Many players will have secrets of their own to hide. At the end, there are awards for Best Performer, Costume and more, and players have an opportunity to share their secrets with the rest of the group. As Host, you can play a character and keep the identity of the murderer a secret, even from yourself!

Your Game Comes With: A Host Guide to guide you through all the steps you need to host your game, Character Profiles and Goals and Objectives, Play Money, Whodunnit Scenario Cards, 3 Evidence Presentations, 3 Solutions, a Whodunnit Score Sheet, and bonus, an online Host Dashboard including all digital files, printable awards for Best Costume, Best Performer, Shadiest Player, and Wealthiest Player Award, A Pinterest Board and Spotify Playlist, and more!
