It's 1881 and the town of Roadkill is finally rid of the villainous Malevolent Seven, a group of notorious criminals who have been terrorizing the citizens for years. To celebrate this milestone, the town's lawman, Waylon Payne, is hosting a grand celebration, complete with a sumptuous meal and a public execution of the masked horseman who masterminded the group's crimes. You and seven other guests have been invited to join in the festivities, but as you take your seats, you realize that nothing is as it seems. As you play the game, you'll take on the role of one of eight colorful characters, each with their own secrets and motives.

With 180 minutes of playtime, you'll have plenty of time to get to know your fellow guests and figure out who's telling the truth and who's hiding something. Will you be able to uncover the truth behind the Malevolent Seven and the mysterious events of the night, or will you become the next victim? Join the celebration and find out in How to Host a Murder: The Good, The Bad & The Guilty, a classic murder mystery game from 1996 designed by Neal Shusterman.
