From the box: The perfect way to "kill" an evening. Who killed Ed Kreegle? Who robbed the Britesburgh People's Bank? How did Melissa Harper die and why was she murdered? If mystery is your game, then you're ready Crime Solvers -- the murderously fun test of detection and deduction. Ten of the most cleverly crafted crimes ever conceived wait to confound you and your friends. How do you go about finding our whodunit? Just piece together the clues! No board, no special rules, no fancy equipment. The only thing standing between each case and its solution is how thorough a job of detective work you can do. But don't let its simplicity fool you; Crime Solvers is wrought with sinister suspects, mysterious motives and dastardly deceptions. You can choose to solve each case alone, compete against rival sleuths or let everybody get into the act. The fun lies not only in solving the crime, but in the lively conversation and interaction that results from group play. But no matter how you play it, you're in for a "bloody" good time! Mysteries included in the game: 1. Baytonen' Fifth 2. Bye Bye Babysitter 3. Mistress Mary 4. Permanent Retirement 5. Programmed to Kill 6. Sports Final 7. The Duke Deaths 8. The House on Maple Lane 9. What's Next? 10. Witche's Brew plus one bonus mystery: The Tut Emerald Caper
