Hunt A Killer Game Night Gone Wrong Board Game

So much fun! We took about 2 hours for my bf and I to play and we solved correctly! My only thing is $40 is a lot to only play once. We ended up giving to another couple. Wish there was maybe a way to cut the price for only one use.

it said it was hard but wasnt. also the person who did it was a bit obvious to me considering if you look at the really analyze the clues. overall dont waste your money

It was so far the most interesting game, it was difficult since I was playing myself, but I was very close to find out who was the killer. I was a little disappointed with who did it and what was the reason, but I still enjoyed it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was so much fun! Played with my siblings over the holidays and everyone really enjoyed playing! I would definitely recommend playing with friends on game night. It was easy for everyone to understand with good instructions!

Disappointing ending. Wish there was another clue about the storage codes. More like a medium difficultly than hard.

Hunt a Killer seems to be hit or miss. this was our fourth--2 really good, 2 kind of stupid. This was in the latter category. Lots of totally unbelievable things occur in a way that is not how any real human behaves. And you are expected to reach wild conclusions based on nothing more than innuendo multiple times. The final plot device was completely silly and not at all believable. Avoid this and Lakeshore Slaughter. Yes to the Yacht one and the Winery one.

This was a fun, engaging, and entertaining game. This was our first Hunt a Killer game and the start was a bit confusing as we thought the quick start guide was where we should start. Do not do this :) instead, don’t look at any of the evidence until you read the letter like the game instructs you to do! Do not assign yourself characters, you’re all playing as a detective to solve the murder. Once we figured that out, it was a blast.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This game was such a hit for a long weekend at home with the teenagers! We are all huge true crime fans and the thrill of solving our own case was so fun and working together as a family to solve it was a great time indeed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product in exchange for an unbiased review. It sucked in my opinion as someone who has never played one of these games. I could not solve it and the website with hints was not working. You can only play it once. Seems like a waste

Such a fun game to play for date night. Loved the mystery aspect and all the clues that have to be solved. Way more interactive and fun than other cold case/mystery games.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a such a fun and immersive activity for game night or even a date night! The storyline is complex and engaging and the clues are very detailed. Everything in the box is well made and ready for any player, or group to jump right in. Not much replay value once you’ve solved the case or revealed the solution though. And too bad my kids are still too young for these themes.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Game Night Gone Wrong pulls you into a world of secrets, suspects, and suspense. Every clue matters, and every detail adds to the thrill. If you love solving mysteries and working as a team, this experience is fun!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This murder mystery game has some really cool aspects but also some frustrating issues. The concept is interesting and the evidence feels realistic with detailed police reports, photos, and other materials that make you feel like a detective. The mental engagement is probably the game’s biggest strength (for me). It keeps you completely absorbed for 2-3+ hours of gameplay. I found myself staying off my phone naturally since I was focused on piecing together clues. It’s a refreshing change from typical Friday night TV / movie watching. Playing with others makes it more enjoyable (though you can play on your own too). Here is what I found frustrating: i had to rewrite the instructions in simpler terms just to understand how to start, which turned into procrastination. Also, the website for additional clues shows error messages which is an inconvenience for solving certain puzzles. The puzzle design gets repetitive after the initial novelty wears off and clues also rely on knowledge or connections that aren’t as universal as the creators assumed. Like most mystery games, replayability is basically zero once you know the solution, so keep that in mind if you are wanting to get multiple uses out of this. If you decide to try it, read through all instructions first, organize your evidence from the start, and try the main Hunt A Killer website if the provided links don’t work. It’s a decent experience when everything works, but the barriers to entry and technical issues make it hard to recommend without reservations

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This game was great!! We took a family vacation with 6 people 30+ and it made for an awesome game night. If you like escape rooms, please try this out. The writing was very clever. We found it to be of great value, and found unboxing it like being revealed clues in an actual mystery. Wish we could repackage it and pass it along, so giving it 4 stars instead of 5 because it does seem like a lot of packaging just to be used once.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Exciting and mysterious game. I love problem solving and playing detectives so this game has been wonderful to me. It has two cases that you can solve in one go or divide them up for different occasions. I played it alone but would be fun if there’s multiple people playing as well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think this game is fun. I think? Honestly, it’s a little overwhelming with all the different rules and paperwork. The parts that my party and I completed were fun, but it was too long winded to be completed in full. If you ever watched The Big Bang Theory, it’s a type of game that Raj would approve.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently played Hunt A Killer: Game Night Gone Wrong with a few friends, and we had an absolute blast! The story was gripping from the start, and the clues were really clever—just the right balance of challenging and fun. We felt like real detectives trying to solve the case together. It was incredibly immersive and perfect for a game night that’s a little different. Highly recommend if you love murder mysteries or just want to try something unique and collaborative. We’re already looking forward to the next one!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Hunt a Killer- Game Night Gone Wrong was going good until my wife and I realized that the QR code to go to the website for the game had a 404 error code and was not accessible. I do not recommend this because the game is unsolvable without the digital aspect. We read all the reports, which was daunting to say the least; figured out how to open the lock box, and were stumped without the remaining clue. We did not open the answer envelope because we did not want to spoil it. There should be more pictures/photo evidence (like some of the other Hunt a Killer games). I emailed the team to see if they could get the website up, but I did not get a response. Sad.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] All the pieces included in the box were all very detailed on making the experience real. My friends and I had a great time playing it together to solve the who done it (we did make the correct accusation fairly early and just used further found evidence to back it up/narrow). That being said given that it is a one time play game for a group we didn't see it as the best value for our money as there are plenty of games we can purchase and get multiple uses out of it. Overall the experience was fun but its a very one off game to play and maybe pass on to others you know so you get use out of it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The packing was great and I think that someone who likes complex games would love this, but as for me and my family we like a old traditional board game and this just was not it. You have to use your phone to play the game and we didn’t enjoy that too much. I didn’t realize that beforehand.
