Double Murder Mystery Games

Most murder games give you one case. We give you two. Solve a cold case and a fresh murder that collide in one unforgettable investigation.

As secrets surface and clues collide, you’ll uncover how past and present intertwine.

Play it solo or with your favorite people. Or people you just like. They don’t have to be your favorite.

(We won’t tell them.)

Two Intertwined Murder Cases

Solve a cold case first... then uncover how it connects to a fresh murder.

More Characters, More Story, More Evidence

With two cases to solve, you have more interviews, more reports, more emails, letters, and extras to review.

Extend the Challenge

Two cases means more suspects, more evidence, more possibilities. You can't solve one case without the other.

It’s an investigative quest for justice.

Inside the case files you’ll analyze:

Police interviews
Text messages
Emails
Crime scene photos
Autopsy and lab reports
911 call transcripts
Handwritten notes and evidence

Investigate the original cold case that sets the stage for a new murder.

Somewhere in the files is the truth. Your job is to find it.

How It Works

Most teams solve the cases within 2-4 hours. Many solo players spread the case over several days. (Like reading a novel.)

Buy File Access

Receive instant access and an email with case file access, including some downloadable worksheets to help with your investigation. You can forward the email to your team so they have access to.

If you’re flying solo, get started right away!

Open Case Files

Access case files instantly from your laptop, phone, or TV. Two murders. Dozens of clues. Everything you need to uncover the truth.

If you are working in a group, we recommend each player bring their own laptop and/or phone so everyone can access any files they want at any time.

Review Evidence

Dig through interviews, reports, photos, texts, emails, and hidden clues.

If you’re working in a group, you could split up the work and share your notes with the team.

Or send the case files to your team early so they can go through them and then gather together and go over everyone’s notes.

Solve Two Cases

Identify the killer from the cold case and from the fresh murder. After you’re done reviewing all the case files, you’ll need to submit your report of who you think is guilty in both cases. (It’s just a short survey.) reveal the truth — and see if your instincts were right.

Then you will be taken automatically to the truth. Izzy’s answers will be revealed.

Why Online Murder Games are Better

Go solo or grab a team

Perfect for date night, game night, any night! Or day. Ditch adulting and play it anytime. Invite the co-workers, scrounge up the neighbors, or play it by yourself.

Throw away your novel and interact with this storyline instead. (We’re actually advocates for reading, so don’t toss your books. Just put them down.)

Play anywhere

Take your phone everywhere? Then you can play the game everywhere. (But never while driving.) Access it on laptops, tablets, or your TV. Got a bestie out of state? Share your screen on a Zoom call. At a doc appointment? Pull up interviews. Lunch break? Waiting for your kid to get out of practice? (You get the idea.)

No time limit

Relax. The guilty won’t go anywhere. If you start playing and have to work or pay attention to kids or fur babies (pay attention to kids and fur babies), come back to it when you’re ready. It’s available until you submit your investigative report.

It’s cheaper & more sustainable

Reviews from our Investigators

“This was such an engaging story. I found myself completely enthralled with the characters and both cases, working through every detail, trying to find connections. It was so much fun and really had me thinking through every possibility.”

“An engaging modern murder mystery that combines police procedural with a realistic, small town drama.”

“I consider myself an experienced interactive puzzle game player and this one really had me thinking. Having two cases to consider, investigate, and try to solve definitely gave me the challenge and a few surprises I love to find in games such as this.”

“I really enjoyed how this incorporated two murder mysteries within one. It was a fun game to solve with friends.”

“Death & the Rosa Theatre is an exceptional new take on murder mysteries. When you dig into the cold case, you are left with many unanswered questions. There are plenty of suspects though one cannot tie them to the murder. As you then work through the new case, there are clues that uncover what happened in the previous case. It's a delightful maze of clues, personalities, and a very creative storyline. Wonderfully written and very fun to work through!”

“This murder mystery isn't like any I've tried to solve before. There are two murders in the one box, which makes this mystery box even more thought provoking and attention grabbing than other murder mysteries I've played. This is a great game to play with your friends!”
