Dazzled to Death

1948. A cocktail party. A killer among the cocktails.

The snow falls thick outside the Evington-Browne family’s secluded hunting lodge in the White Mountains, where Boston’s elite have gathered for their legendary annual cocktail party. Crystal glasses clink, jazz music plays, and everyone is “simply dazzling, darling.”

Then the valet is found dead in the kitchen.

Heart attack? Or murder most foul?

With telephone lines down and roads impassable, you’re trapped in this winter wonderland with a potential killer. As secrets bubble up like champagne and alibis crumble faster than cocktail crackers, your team must solve the mystery before someone else gets their final drink.

In a world of high society and low morals, can you survive until the storm clears?

📜 The Story

Winter 1948 — The glamorous Evington-Browne family (“E-B” to their friends) hosts their traditional cocktail party at their rustic hunting lodge north of Boston. Society’s finest have gathered for an evening of martinis, gossip, and sophisticated scandal.

But a fierce blizzard cuts the lodge off from civilization just as tragedy strikes: a guest’s valet is discovered dead in the kitchen. It appears to be a heart attack, but suspicious circumstances suggest something far more sinister.

Trapped by the storm with no phone service or escape routes, your team must navigate:

  • Hidden family secrets
  • Personal vendettas
  • Romantic entanglements
  • Financial scandals

Your mission: Uncover the truth, protect your own secrets, and survive until rescue arrives—if the killer doesn’t strike again first.
