02 / Set the scene
Everyone gets a character.
Read the host guide, choose the cast size and prepare the materials before your guests arrive. Use the rehearsal room to become familiar with the controls.
For live play, host from a laptop. Guests enter the room code and their display name on a phone—no account or app download. You can also print the kit and follow the host guide offline.
Automated hosting can handle progression in supported games; check the pack’s instructions before deciding how you want to participate.

03 / Secrets come out
A clue changes the conversation.
Work through the rounds. Guests compare stories, ask questions and discover evidence. Some information is private; some is revealed to the group.
This torn ledger is actual illustrated evidence from Death at Dinner Deluxe. The standard edition contains the playable story and clues; Deluxe adds visual props like this.

04 / The big reveal
