Murder mystery games for kids Kids, children, teens, young adults… Whatever you call them, most kids have a great time playing our murder mystery games - possibly even more so than the grown ups!

Susan Bull, California Running and hosting murder mystery games for kids Kids approach and play these games in a different way to adults, and it's worth considering this when you're hosting games for them. Some of the players may not have read any of the introductory materials that you sent out to them with their invitations. You should allow plenty of time at the beginning of the game for them to get familiar with the background, rules etc. You should also be aware that they may be reluctant to put their hands up and ask questions if there are bits that they don't understand.

Be prepared to answer queries individually — you may need to take each of them in turn to one side and ask if there's anything they don't understand.

Kids tend to play through these games more quickly than adults do, and also they may get bored quicker. You probably want a total time from start to finish of no longer than 3 hours. More time will be needed for the introduction, but this can be made up for by shortening the other sessions of the game.

You should probably aim for not much more than 2 hours of actual play. A round-robin "everyone describe what they were up to" debrief may not be appropriate, if the kids are shy of standing up and speaking in front of a group. You may find it better for you as the host to talk through the important and the fun points of the game and let them tell their stories to their friends in small groups. A mix of ages may not work all that well.

And some of this older group can be very self-conscious about "getting into the game" if they're playing alongside people from outside their close friends group. You have to be quite careful with casting — in particular, don't leave it to your kids to do the casting themselves without you checking it over!

And characters who are supposed to be friends in the game are best cast with kids who are friends in real life. Romance is another area to be careful with.

In our kids' games any romance between characters is of an innocent nature, but even so kids may be uneasy about playing "being in love" unless with their close friends and familiars. We had two adults assisting for A Dead Man's Chest, and we would each take the kids off to a private room and suggest things their characters could do, so that they were never stuck. Juju Vail, London Mixing adults and kids Most of our games can happily accommodate a mix of adults and youngsters with no need to change anything, as long as you're careful about which characters you assign to whom.

Here's some great advice on mixing adults and younger kids in the same game: I had 2 grandsons who played Spellbound with us, one 13 and one 9 years old.
