The Y2K Millennium Murder
1990's Las Vegas Murder Mystery Dinner Party Game for 8-12 players
It's 1999. Las Vegas has a new hotel, the Millennium, and the bookings are rolling in. As part of a publicity campaign, the owners are hosting the much anticipated grand final of the National Lookalikes Contest, to be broadcast nationwide live from the hotel's ballroom. It's expected to be a sensation and the winner is going to walk away with a cool million dollars... But as time ticks down to the new century, things are not running smoothly at the Mob run hotel - and the man who owns and runs the National Lookalikes Contest is found dead in his luxury suite.
Yes, it's murder - but which of the lookalike contestants has done the deed? You all have your reasons... By the end of your game, the murderer will be revealed.
This is an original murder mystery game supplied by email as ready to print Microsoft Word pdf files. The immersive game has interesting plot lines and plenty to keep players guessing 'whodunit' right until the very end. Running time is 1½ - 2 hours.
The files supplied will print character booklets for your guests, invitations, setup instructions, name tags, a newspaper article, various evidence, a choice of two murder confessions and extras to help turn your venue into the Las Vegas crime scene.
You will need 65+ sheets of printer paper and a stapler.
The 8-12 characters:
Arnie Schwarznegger (M):
A lookalike of the ultimate hard man, you intend to take a leaf out of your hero's book and steam roller your way to success in the National Lookalikes Contest. And you don't care much who gets in your way... Hasta la vista, baby!
David Hasselhoffer (M):
Earning a living as a lookalike has been easy for you, just one glorious party appearance after another. Hey, life is good, dude. But it could be so much better if you won the National Lookalikes Contest...
Donald Drump (M):
As the real Donald Drump, not a lookalike, you have the most to gain by winning the National Lookalikes Contest. None of these other pale imitations can hold a candle to you. You have the most to win... and lose...
Elton Jon (M):
Adept at performing the piano works of Rachmaninov and Tchaikovsky, the ballads of Elton John present no problem for you, if only winning the National Lookalikes Contest was so easy...
Michael Datson (M):
10-12 players
You are funding your way through college by appearing as a Michael Jackson lookalike. Why not compete in the National Lookalikes Contest? It's just a bit of fun... right?
Dolly Barton (F):
As her lookalike, you take inspiration from the real Dolly. Never mind 9-5, you will put in all the hours to win the National Lookalikes Contest. Returning down south to Tennessee empty handed is just not an option, no sirree...

As lookalike for the star diva, Cher, you feel the National Lookalikes Contest should be a foregone conclusion, right? Representing the Queen of the music industry, the lookalikes award has to come your way. Right...?
Extra characters:
Ossie Osbourne (M):
Appearing as a lookalike for Black Sabbath's legendary singer, your clothes and swagger mark you out as a heavy rocker, liking your music loud, yours chicks adoring and the parties never ending. Actually, it's not quite like that...
Madonna (F):
A lookalike for the hot chick of rock, you take your Italian style seriously. Jabba Hutt should have realised just how much you wanted to win the National Lookalikes Contest. His mistake...
