Our Expert Score

78/100

Murdered by Midnight is a stylish social deduction game that brings the 'whodunit' thrill to mobile with a distinct noir flair. Unlike many games in the genre that can feel chaotic, this one prioritizes the gathering of evidence and logical reasoning. Playing as either a guest or the killer, you’re forced to balance your public persona with your private objectives. The atmosphere is top-notch, with a visual style that feels like a classic mystery novel come to life.

The gameplay loop is satisfying, though it heavily relies on having a communicative group of players. When the table talk is active, the tension is palpable as midnight approaches and the body count rises. The various roles add a layer of replayability that keeps the 'house party' from getting stale. It’s a great pick for groups of friends looking for a digital game night option that’s a bit more sophisticated than the average party game.

Version 2.0Tue Nov 21 2023

This version provides a new, updated UI that adjusts to fit whatever device the game is running on. Adds a better way to tie the murder weapon to the murderer as one of the following: By interviewing witnesses, by the location of a suspect or by the room a suspect was staying in.


The Murdered by Midnight board game can now be enjoyed anywhere on the go. Either play with friends or family around the world. Be the first to deduce the murderer, murder weapon, motive and time of death to solve the murder and win the game!

The story takes place in the 1920’s in a fabulous Art Deco mansion, Briarwood Manor. The owners have gathered six world famous detectives and several of their friends and family to throw a “murder party”, where they’ll stage a mock murder for the detectives to solve as entertainment… as was all the rage in the 20’s.

Unfortunately, things get all too real when someone commits an actual murder before the party gets started. Can you follow the clues and bring the guilty to justice before time runs out?
