I have played many of these games from hunt a killer and have absolutely loved them. To say this one fell short of that, would be an understatement. The “clues” given weren’t very helpful and weren’t significant enough to remember. One of the ciphers logically made no sense by the time we finished the game. Extremely disappointed with this one.
Disappointing at best

Honestly, would give this 0 stars if i could. The whole point of these games is to identify the person with means, motive and opportunity. With the information provided, you couldn't logically narrow anything down this way. So many gaps in the clues and lacking any sort of cohesiveness. As a long time and devoted hunt a killer fan, this was extremely disappointing.
Disappointing

Baffling. The conclusion of the story was illogical, unsatisfying, and felt like it was re-written halfway through production. Very weak evidence. Didn't feel as thorough of a murder mystery game like ones from other companies. Only reviews online are from customers that received a free copy (and somehow they're all positive). Makes me question buying another HAK game.
Fun to play

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was one of my favorite games to play with my family! All of the materials provided looked so realistic (the receipt, notes, map,etc) that we were amazed by the quality of the materials used and the details of the game. We loved this game and it was so fun to play!
Very neat concept

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this game and I opened the box but haven’t played yet. I’m unsure if it’s one time because there’s a sealed envelope. I think it would be odd but the concept of a murder mystery you can play at home is neat. I can’t wait to have a group of people play.
Super fun game!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Final Act Murder at The Talemt Show game is amazing. Opening the box and seeing all the clues and information made us feel like real detectives. Instructions were very easy to follow, and all the different parts were labeled, so it was easy to find. We enjoyed playing and solving this game. We are going to use this next week for a party game because it was so much fun. You can play by yourself or with up to fourteen other players. The only downside is once you solve the mystery, you are done with the game because you already know the killer.
Great game to play with friends or family!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve played a Hunt A Killer Game before so I was very excited to get this free from influenster! I played it with my family the other night and had a great time. If you like puzzles or escape rooms then you will like this. You get a bunch of clues to try to figure out the killer. Only thing is that once you play it you can’t play again since you know the killer. I suggest to not write on anything so that you can let your other family members or friends play the game too.
Great game night fun!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thank you Influenster for sending me this to try out. My family and I had a blast! We actually got it wrong but I feel like if we would have kept going and weren't so confident in ourselves, we could have gotten it right. The story was good and led you to believe it would have a different ending.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So the game is fun...there is lots of material to read to get clues to figure out who did it. But .... you can only play this game once,s because it never changes. So once you play pass the game along to another group or family So they can also have fun. Be patient, take your time, read through all the materials for all the given clues and just have fun
Would be great if online resources worked

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The game is well put together. I’m sure it’s a great game but the player resources QR code doesn’t work. Goes directly to GoDaddy. So we were unable to figure it out.
Great Fun!
