The Retirement Toast

What’s inside

• Host guide: a spoiler-free setup and a five-step game flow anyone can run
• The crime: a read-aloud opening that sets the scene in two minutes
• 4 cut-out suspect cards, each with public facts and a private secret worth lying about
• 4 evidence cards: a witness statement, a timeline, a confidential memo and an anonymous threat
• Accusation ballots and a separate solution PDF (host only) that explains every clue

How to play

1. Print the pages single-sided and cut out the suspect and evidence cards.
2. Cast four players as the suspects. Everyone else plays detective.
3. Read the crime aloud, hear the alibis, reveal the evidence one card at a time, then question the suspects.
4. Everyone votes, then the host opens the solution PDF and you find out who saw through the lies.

Who it’s for

Family game night, birthday parties, team events and classrooms. The case has no graphic content and suits ages 12 and up. Like every case we publish, it is built to be deduced, not guessed: the timeline, the witness statement and one quiet document narrow four suspects down to one.
