Description

The illustrious Carnegie family is hosting a giant party of frivolity, laughter and a few spiked drinks. From Gatsby to Governors, everyone's invited for the riotous affair. Unfortunately, the bloodied dead body suggests there are one too many guests. Was it a jealous lover? Or filthy blackmail? Or plain old fashioned Envy? This is the bloody 1920's at its worst.

Envy is a printable escape room game that transforms any space into a 1920's Gatsby style murder mystery escape room experience. What's it like? Well, imagine what would happen if you mixed an escape room and a house party in a cocktail shaker. That's Envy.

This printable escape room kit combines the teamwork, tension, and puzzle-solving of escape rooms with the laidback ease of group party games. Players will work together to solve the mystery of Lord Carnegie’s murder, before time runs out. Gameplay is centered on a series of puzzle sheets hidden around the room. Each puzzle solved puts you one step closer to cuffing the killer red-handed (literally… there’s blood everywhere!).

Game setup is quick and spoiler-free, and hints are handled by an online hint system that players access on their smartphones. This means that no game master is required to supervise the experience, so you can join the game alongside your players.

The game can expand to accommodate any number of players by dividing your group into teams of 2-4, and then pitting them against each other to see who finishes the game first. In addition, you can edit the game file before printing to customize your own escape room experience.
