Unsolved Murder Mystery Game - Cold Case Files Investigation - Cryptic Killers - Detective Evidence & Crime File - Individuals, Date Nights & Party Games- Murder in Market Hill

Another hit by the Cryptic Killers Team! This was a fun 2 hour session of detective role play. I was completely immersed in the story and was so pleasantly surprised by the inclusion of some actual history in the game! This was probably 3 out of 5 stars for difficulty. It was complex on some parts because names were left out and really needed you to draw on the context clues and inferences given. This was so fun to do solo and would be even better in a group. Honestly, buy this immediately. The value is insane for how much you get out of the game! I would recommend supporting this team always because they are so thorough with all of their cases. Thank you Cryptic Killers for being my favorite hobby!

Awesome game! Really enjoyed the flow and it gave us a challenge while also not being too puzzling. The mix of photos, letters, etc was a nice touch to provide different kinds of material. Considering it took us a few hours, id say it was worth the price as well!

This is probably not the first case I should have done from this brand, but it was. It was enjoyable, the items involved were amazing and unique, they looked real in all regards. The story was tricky and I can't wait to do another one of these in the future! The online aspect was also enjoyable. There were plenty of hints on the website to help if you get stuck. It took about 2 hours for me and my fiancé to complete this. Great Value, better then an escape room cost wise, and can be replayed if you have a horrible memory.

The game was great. Had some twist. and we had to really think and read all the newspapers clippings to get the whole picture. skimming is not an option. Tools a minute but in the end we figured it out.highly recommend it!!

These games are fantastic! My sister and I did one over New Year’s and now every time we spend a weekend at the family cabin, the “crime solving detective duo” reunites and we bring a new case to solve (lol!). Great way to stay engaged and off electronics for an evening. This one (Murder on Market Hill) was quite involved, with two “parts” in two separate envelopes - it took quite a while and I loved it. Have done two others, will most likely end up purchasing all of the Cryptic Killers cases before the year’s end!

I was skeptical at first. I’m a HUFE FAN of a game series called “Unlock” and a series called “Sherlock,” and I was nervous that those games had ruined any possibility of a good new game series for me to start… MAN WAS I WRONG! What a fun idea! This game is a great single player or group game. The set up is really what brings it together. First showing up in an evidence bag!!!! Then everything inside the evidence folder looks (I assume) as if it were a real case file. Photos, mail, witness reports, police records, they really go all out. You can tell a lot of love and time was put into this game. There is a bit of an online aspect to it as well. If you get stuck, the hints are easy to use and well designed for the game. I liked this game so much I bought 4 more. For the price it’s not bad, and the game doesn’t get ruined after one play so I can share it with my family. (That’s my favorite part about a good game, sharing it.)

Wasn't sure how much fun this would be but now I am hooked. A great date night game that is challenging and engaging. Will definately be buying more for gifts, very affordable entertainment!

We completed all 13 Cryptic Killers games this summer and have had a great time!!!! Thank you for a quality product that gave us quality time together!!!

Absolutely love these games. This is the sixth one my 18 year old and I have done. Hard enough that it takes up most of an afternoon or evening but not so hard it’s no fun. The amount of thought and effort that has been put in to the evidence in the case files staggers me every time with the little added points of detail on the information to be sifted. Quality product. The first one we did we got as a present (not something I’d have thought to buy if I’m honest) but we loved it so much we keep buying them ourselves. Hmm, which one to do next….?

Solved without the use of hints. Not for the beginner, Market Hill is intense and challenging, with many tiny details that of course matter. Nothing is as it seems, and much like real life, you have to sift through many red herrings and inconsequential facts and people. What a wonderful way to spend 5 hours. We did this very slowly and methodically, and it was so well laid out, with zero mistakes in the game itself which is such a pleasure and so refreshing. Thank you for the creators for such a masterpiece. I wish they showed the level of difficulty, as it is a 5 out of 5, and some people who never had done one of these may be overwhelmed.

I loved other games from this company but this one was nearly impossible!!!!!

Very challenging but a great game! We will definitely be purchasing more :)

Took 2 of us about 5 hours total, we chose the murder in market hill. Spread across a few days. Evidence props were really cool, 100% recommend. 5/5 was challenging and it doesn’t hold your hand, be prepared to turn every stone.
