4.2
Your 90’s throwback turns deadly – ‘Back to the 90’s’ for 9 players.
Step into the world of baggy jeans, Britpop, and Beanie Babies, where the music’s loud, the secrets are buried, and someone’s about to ruin the vibe permanently.
Built for nine players, Back to the 90’s is a personalised murder mystery game packed with nostalgia, banter, and betrayal. Whether you’re playing face to face around the table or over a video call, this game guarantees a night of 90’s fun… and finger-pointing.
You choose the venue, the characters, and the backstory, and then it’s up to you to work out who turned this party into a crime scene.
What’s the story?
It’s 1999. The world is partying like it’s the end of the century. But at the heart of your town’s celebrations, disaster strikes, the beloved local mayor is found dead at the edge of the park.
As police tape cordons off the scene, a group of key suspects (that’s you!) are gathered together. Each of you had a connection to the mayor. Each of you had something to lose, or gain.
The decade of dial-up, mixtapes, and murder
Was it a feud? A secret deal gone wrong? Or a desperate attempt to stop a truth from coming out?
There’s only one way to find out: question, accuse, and vote, before the decade ends in disaster.
Tailored for 9 players
This version of Back to the 90’s is made for exactly nine players. Every role matters, and no one’s safe from suspicion.
