Mystery Game Central - Murder Mystery Games and Party Kits

Welcome to the world of Formula 17 racing -- fast cars, big deals and bitter rivalries. Three races are all that remain of the current racing season -- and with everything left to play for, the championship is in turmoil. Jo Shooie, championship leader, has been murdered! Will the murderer be caught? Who will take the chequered flag and the Championship? You will be in the middle of the action and it will be up to you to wheel and deal with the other guests. Can you achieve your goals, keep your secrets hidden and survive Death in the Fast Lane? It's up to you.

In Death in the Fast Lane you will discover the following:

• Who is having an affair?
• Who has renegotiated their contract?
• Who are the Three Tenors?
• Who will win the championship?
• ...and, of course, who murdered Jo Shooie?

Find out in Death in the Fast Lane!

In Death in the Fast Lane, the last three races of the current Formula 17 season will be played out over the course of a single evening. The characters include drivers, team owners and the chairperson of the Race Committee. However, not everyone is as they seem - some have dark secrets they need to keep hidden... and someone is the murderer.

Death in the Fast Lane is unlike many murder mystery games. Although the game starts with a murder, most of the characters have more important things to do than to investigate it. And the killing may not be over - it is unlikely that everyone will survive the remainder of the evening!

Death in the Fast Lane is played just like a murder mystery game. You may be trying to solve the murder, but primarily you are (initially at least) concentrating on your own goals and objectives. Unlike most boxed murder mystery games, Death in the Fast Lane lets you decide how to achieve your goals and thwart your enemies.

On the evening of the game the guests are met by the organizer, the Race Marshal, and welcomed to the races. They then receive their detailed backgrounds - including dark secrets, goals and items. The fun then begins as form alliances, blackmail each other, steal items and maybe even try to run one another off the circuit! Depending on what the players choose to do, there are several different possible endings, but finally everyone finds out how they did, and what secrets everyone else was concealing.
