Listen very carefully; this is ”Night Owl' calling...
It is wartime in occupied France and in the sleepy village of Vieuxvion, café owners Ronné and Ethel Tartine are trying to keep the Germans happy while secretly helping the Résistance.
However, all hell breaks loose when the body of an RAF pilot is found at the café. It looks suspiciously like murder, but who did it and why was the pilot holding a (German?!) sausage?
The Cast:Essential Cast
Inspector Eiffel ” The policeman sent to solve the crime
Efficient in his own peculiarly French way, Inspector Eiffel has an unusual
method of solving crimes ” he involves everyone!
Ronné Tartine - Café owner.
Amiable but a little bit bumbling, Ronné likes to please everyone but this can get him into some sticky situations.
Ethel Tartine - Ronné's wife.
Bonne viveuse, vivacious and flirty. A former cabaret singer, Ethel likes to entertain the guests in the café, but her efforts are not appreciated.
Herr Frick - Gestapo officer.
Frick is in charge of operations at the castle. He is cold and calculating. Nothing escapes his eye (or so he likes to think!).
Helga Suspender - A secretary in the German army.
A sexy fraulein with a somewhat exhibitionist streak and a penchant for silky undies!
Lieutenant Hubert Grosser - German Lieutenant.
Somewhat effeminate in manner, but with hidden depths.
Yvonne Le Bon-Bon - Café waitress.
A sweetie who likes to please, but don't criticise her galettes.
Optional Cast:
Lieutenant Fairfield - RAF Officer.
Frightfully upper class and well spoken. Brave but a bit clueless.
Mini La Clonq - A waitress at the café and also a secret agent for the Résistance.
Mini's a little intense and scary. You daren't refuse her coffee!
Robert L'Eclair - Café pianist.
Robert is in fact a member of the Résistance and a master of disguises.
Micheline - French Résistance worker.
Resourceful and intelligent,she always gets the job done.
Madame La Panne - Mother-in-law of Ronné.
A sourpuss who's hard to please,Madame La Panne has a room in the attic and frequently takes to her bed.
Captain Al Bertolli - Captain in the Italian army.
Bertolli has a chest full of medals but is nothing more than a cheesy lothario.
Never run a large group mystery before? Then don't
panic! Hosting a Large Group Murder Mystery is time consuming, but with
ample preparation and a good cast it is really quite simple and great
fun! In large group games it is impossible to give everyone a part,
instead the mystery involves “cast members” who are fully in the know and act out
the mystery, and the guests act as detectives trying to solve the murder.
Large group games come in several different formats, clue based, cast
based, multi-room, single room, or a mixture of them all. This particular
game requires 7-13 cast, and one large room. It also has an option of a series
of paper clues. Guests will also need paper and pens. This game works best as a
sit down event with 6-12 tables of guests who work as a team, but the game can be
adapted to suit most formats of events. The game contains two options.
Option 1: All clues are provided by cast members.
Option 2: Guests receive questions to ask the suspects (cast members) on paper,
and have to find out the answers to these questions from the cast. To find out more information about Character Based single room games click here Character based mystery games for large groups.
