Perhaps only being able to say what clue you were given without being able to show the clue itself would be a better mechanic, which would allow for more fun counter-play.Īvatar: The game host was lovely, very well organized and they even participated in the game. I think the way the superpowers work could use some reworking, as well as how the clues are handled. Some players are also given a superpower that you can use to collect information or use to spread misinformation. We share these clues to pool information and deduce who the villains are. Then players are given clues to different player’s pasts. Game Play: I quite liked the format of this game. Our group dressed up, and all the different stories and clues really added to the fun. Immersion: The immersion factor was top-notch. The hosts even match the characters to your group member’s personalities which is fun… and it’s even more fun when you win as the supervillain like I did. Each character had a detailed backstory which slowly gets leaked to other players via various clues hinting at your shadowy, suspicious past. Peih Gee Law’s ReactionĪs far as murder mysteries go, this one had quite a lot of depth. Just a nicely devised social deduction whodunnit. No real puzzles to solve or escape room elements here. I mostly had fun leaning into the silly character I was assigned more so than the game plot, but had an enjoyable time regardless. It was a bit ambiguous at times what my specific objective was but the overall mission seemed to be clear.
The game was well organized compared to others of this type and for the most part I was able to follow along the story. Throughout the game, when new information became available, players were emailed updates and further info and clues.
Prior to gameplay, each player was provided a light character backstory, some suggested costume elements, and some info they needed to convey to other players. The game took place over Gather and was broken into several rounds of gameplay.
Superheroes was a fun iteration on the murder mystery style of gameplay.
