Product Description: Flabbius Corpus, the renowned Roman poet, invites you to a banquet for the premier recitation of his historical work. When you arrive, you discover there's been a murder in the garden and a priceless statue is missing. You assume the role of one of eight Roman characters as you solve the mystery. Like a history lesson come to life, the schemes of these less-than-noble characters are laid bare. All games in the How to Host a Murder series begin with a murder and end with the unmasking of the culprit. But not before dinner, guessing, and lots of laughs! Your eight costumed guests assume the role of humorous characters. Layers of a complex murder mystery are peeled away as you question every response. Each character has motive and opportunity to commit the crime. No one knows the murderer until the last minute of the party. How to Host a Murder delivers the highest quality game play in the murder/mystery genre--humor, character depth, and a sophisticated story.
