12-20 players will assume the roles of Seniors at Oceanside High School. Andy is the most popular kid at school, co-captain of the sailing team, and is dating the senior class president (Shawn). Andy is throwing the first big party of the year, and... like... everyone is going to be there.
The host of the murder mystery party will the play the role of Andy and help facilitate the game, which is organized into two rounds. During Round One, players mingle, get to know each other, and collect rumors. It ends with a scripted dramatic skit in which a shocking secret is revealed.
During Round Two, players try to complete various secret objectives, like securing a time machine, collecting soul fragments, or lobbying for enough votes to win Homecoming Couple of the Year. At the end of Round Two, somebody gets murdered. Then, everyone tries to figure out who the murderer was and why they did it. Those answers will depend on which secret objectives were or were not accomplished.
