There are 2 versions
of this game available to you with purchase!
Version 1 is the Know It All version wherein
the prime suspects get the script/sequence of actions ahead of time and know
whodunit. Version 2 is the Narrator version where
they'll just get their character descriptions ahead of time and you'll add
a narrator to tell the story while your prime suspects act out what he/she
is saying. In this version they won't need to know whodunit. YOU
WILL RECEIVE BOTH VERSIONS WHEN YOU PURCHASE THIS GAME.

THE STORY AND THE CHARACTERS:
YEAR: Any (we’ve set it in modern day).
STORY: Director Eddie Cheek is looking for backers for his
new movie, THE ZOMBIE WAS AN ALIEN, so he’s throwing a gala shindig for
interested parties.
SIX PRIMARY SUSPECTS:
- Eddie Cheek: A former script reader for Tantamount Films, now a director (and legend in his own mind). His hero is B movie director Ed Wood, Jr.
- Cherri Pitt: She has the female
lead of Kat Klondike in Eddie’s picture. It doesn’t matter how
she got it, she just has it. For now.
- Nova Devoe: She wants the lead and she always gets what she wants.
- Rock Stud: The male lead in Zombie.
He hasn’t had much work since his television series, Sky Fling, Pilot
PI, so this job is a welcome one. He and Cherri are a hot item.
- Quinnie Winston: He’s the make up artist and a supporting actor in all of Eddie’s
movies. They met literally by accident.
- Billie Clubb: A casting agent who’s
working with Eddie to cast this picture. Word has it her company is going
bankrupt so this job is probably pretty important to her.
SECONDARY SUSPECTS: Remember, EVERYONE will
be actively involved in this mystery because it will be their job to solve the
case and because you’ll be encouraging them to come in costume and in
character. Use any or all of these secondary suspects if you have “extra” cast
members you want to use or if you have some guests who want to take on a character
but not take on the full responsibility of a primary suspect. Give them
their secondary suspect instructions (included) and let them run with it. ***FOR
LARGE GROUP MYSTERIES (75 OR MORE): I'd definitely suggest
you cast your secondary suspects. During the mystery it will be the secondary
suspects' "job" to act as general support for the primary suspects.
They'll roam the room "gossiping" about the goings-in, quiet the
audience down during a main action, answer questions, bring primary suspects
to tables for questioning and make sure your guests have seen the physical clues
that have been revealed.
- Dan Druff: Nova’s go-fer, assistant, secretary, manservant and chauffeur. Nova’s
very demanding of him.
- Henny Loggersnapper: The frazzled
and frumpish but devoted script supervisor at Eddie’s beck and call.
- Chance Heartfelt: The set designer and prop master. He can work wonders making alien spaceships with crazy glue and paper plates.
- Edith Header: The eccentric but brilliant costume designer.
- Dr. Willie: Rock’s therapist - he’s on Rock’s
payroll and therefore goes wherever Rock wants him to to be available for counseling.
Dr. Willie should be at the ready to expound on the meaning of Rock’s
behavior and everyone else’s
for that matter. He should be the shoulder Rock cries on - a little too often.
