Dead Man’s Hand is a compact murder mystery set aboard a Mississippi riverboat. An illicit poker game ends in a suspicious death — six suspects, one killer, and a trail of evidence waiting to be pieced together. Your job is to crack the case before the culprit jumps ship.

Work through witness statements, evidence documents, and a deduction grid to eliminate suspects and narrow down the truth. Use the included playing cards to reconstruct the final poker hands dealt that night — a satisfying physical mechanic that ties the theme directly into the puzzle-solving. Hints and solutions are included if you get stuck.

What's good?

  • Card reconstruction mechanic is clever and thematically on point
  • Deduction grid keeps evidence organised as the case builds
  • Compact components — 26 cards, case notes, logbook, and evidence sheets
  • Works well solo or as a duo challenge

Who is it for?

  • ✔ Murder mystery fans who enjoy structured deduction puzzles
  • ✔ Solo players or pairs aged 12+ looking for a focused challenge
  • ✔ A neat, affordable gift for crime fiction enthusiasts
  • ✖ Single-play — once solved, the mystery cannot be reset

This is a single-play game — once the case is solved, it cannot be replayed by the same group.
