After confessing to a series of disturbing, animalistic murders, Bill Mendax - or "The Night Hunter" as he was dubbed in the press - was sentenced to life in prison.

Worth Money !
Color: Multi Set name: The Night Hunter
MAKE SURE TO USE QR CODE AS THERE IS MORE INFO (BESIDES HINTS AND SOLUTIONS) NECESSARY FOR SOLVING CHAPTER OBJECTIVES! They do not specify difficulty (afaik) but I would say it is intermediate. Nothing excruciatingly hard. I am very surprised at how much content there is for 20$. Other companies I have tried, are like 5-10 bucks more or same price, but have significantly less. Game comes in a nice box, components are well made, and there are some unique approaches to solving mystery, that I have not seen before. It was really fun. The game also had proper organization with the help of case separation into objective chapters. It was very thoughtful to make “solutions” on the website have multiple choices, and not directly bump you with the right answer. The website is awesome! It is clearly a game that could be played only once, but you can always resell it or pass it on to a friend. ... show more

Such a better format than its competitors
Color: Multi Set name: The Night Hunter
This is way better than competing games. Please make more of these, especially like this one that can be done with 1 or 2 people and not the large group party games! There are too many of those. Pros: amazing format, great that you can do a chapter at a time & spread out over multiple nights, outstanding evidence and the amount of materials, and great creative detail. Also love the 80’s vibes. Cons: abrupt ending (please consider adding consequences & wrap-up on what happens after you solved it); our blacklight also strobes making it very hard to read with but hopefully that’s a one-off; not super clear that we were allowed to use our phones to look stuff up but one of the clues in particular could not be solved unless we used a Latin dictionary, which was super cool but we weren’t sure if that was cheating. Overall this was awesome. Especially love that it didn’t start out with a list of suspects like so many of the other games. That format is so tired and it does half the work for you. It’s so much more fun to track things down like it was in this game. I hope there will be more! ... show more

Great Buy!
Color: Multi Set name: The Night Hunter
Bought this game with no expectations and as a first time player of mystery murder party games; I love it. My cousins and I took 2 days to finish it, only because we spaced out each section but I thought the set up and story line was pretty interesting.

Good value, unique format
Color: Multi Set name: The Night Hunter
This game’s linear, segmented format sets it apart from other “cold case” style murder mystery games. The whole game is the same plot line about a serial killer, but the game is divided into four discrete chapters further subdivided into three objectives, each of which you must complete before moving to the next objective. It is perfect for a family game where you’d like hard stops over multiple nights of game play. The linear organization also works well for players who are overwhelmed by more compact mystery games where all the evidence is presented at once…and not to suggest that teens aren’t focused, but this is an easily digestible format to keep younger attention spans engaged. Frankly, I really prefer games less linear than this one, but I did appreciate having hard stops where I could set the game down and come back later. The materials are quality, and the puzzles are fine. The writing is OK, although there was one objective solution that I think took a very large logic leap that shouldn’t be present in games like this - unless I missed a clue that was not covered in the hints and solution info. But overall, I think this is reasonably priced for what you receive (at least it is as of this writing) and worth buying if you like this style game. I debated giving 5 stars, but the writing and the website are slightly underwhelming. ... show more

Many small challenges to solve
Color: Multi Set name: The Night Hunter
I really enjoyed solving this mystery with my partner. We’ve previously done 4-5 similar murder mystery games, but this one was my favorite. Unlike other games that have endless pages to read, this one struck a good balance. There was reading involved, but it wasn’t overwhelming. We completed it over a long weekend, and it took about 4-5 hours. What I loved most was the number of small puzzles we had to solve. it wasn’t just a single challenge. Although we weren’t as thrilled with the final puzzle, the overall experience was fantastic. I recommend this game for a fun game night. ... show more

Detailed, tons of evidence, and a little challenging
Color: Multi Set name: The Night Hunter
I bought this game after playing Death at the Dive Bar from a different company. This game has a lot more evidence and smaller challenges to accomplish step by step in order to determine the killer. We played casually for about an hour and half and only solved the first of the four challenges. The story is interesting and it was fun to play. We are looking forward to finding the killer over the next couple hangout nights! ... show more

Starts off strong, ends with disappointment
Color: Multi Set name: The Night Hunter
First three chapters were great, 5 stars, all logic based off evidence. Final chapter didn't seem to match, more abstract, had to look up hints, and the killer's actions were not consistent with the previous cases. Definitely ended on a disappointing note even though we beat the game.

A great cold case file
Color: Multi Set name: The Night Hunter
Wow. This case was a super fun challenge. It comes in multiple parts. We did half last night and the second half tonight. The game is full of cool evidence including detailed evidences, puzzles, and a black light to reveal fingerprints and other hidden information. The online hints were great and they helped confirm some of our suspicions to keep us on track. Lots of twists and turns and a great story. For a great night in, get a pizza and unpack the Night Hunter! ... show more
