You’re invited to be a secret agent for a night! You will be playing the role of an agent of an 8-member team working for the top-secret British intelligence agency MI6. You and your close-knit team have just completed a mission, a spy capture. The party had begun to celebrate the success when your long-time mission commander, Sir George Davies, drops dead after a mysterious package arrives. Was it from untimely natural causes…or something more sinister? It’s time to blow the cover of The Double Agent!
The Double Agent is a script-based murder mystery. It can be played with 8 players + 1 host (for this game, we recommend that the host does not also attempt to play one of the roles). Have more than 6 players? Extra players can join as Investigators! The Investigators will be allowed to question any character of their choosing at the end of each round, and will also be able to vote for who they think committed the crime.

🔴 Format: This murder mystery can either be played in-person or virtually.
🎭 Acting Requirement: In script-based murder mysteries, players simply need to read the script that has been provided to them and then use the clues provided to solve the murder. This style of murder mystery requires little to no acting ability and is ideal for those who have never played a murder mystery before.
👪 Large Groups: Large groups can play this murder mystery by breaking up into groups of 9 (8 Players + 1 Host). Groups of odd numbers, like 10 for example, could have 8 Players + 1 Host + 1 Investigator. Otherwise, you could hire us to be the Host and let everyone play in either a Player or Investigator role. The possibilities are endless!

We support all of the “Big Four” platforms - Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, and Webex by Cisco. Don’t use one of those platforms? No problem. If we can download it and it has breakout rooms, we can use it :)
We can assign you Hosts that speak English, Mandarin Chinese, Cantonese, Bahasa Melayu/Indonesia, Spanish, Russian, Polish, or Ukrainian!If you would like a non-English speaking host, you can request this at the checkout page. However, please do note that all of our game content is currently only available in English and Spanish.
You can totally host this activity yourself! When you download the Game Pack (from the link at the top of this page), you’ll receive a comprehensive “Host Guide” along with the rest of the game materials. This Host Guide is a full set of instructions that you (or a friend) can use to Host this murder mystery, and we’ve created it to empower you to lead an amazing event even if you’ve never done it before!
If you’re still nervous about Hosting, or if you just want to enjoy the game and not worry about all the logistics, then we’re here to support! Just click the “Book Host” button at the top of this page, and we’d be thrilled to plan and host the activity for you, from start to finish.
If you book our host, you’ll immediately be guided to a checkout page where you’ll give us some information about your event - the date, time, timezone, etc. Once you checkout, we’ll immediately get in touch with you to share a calendar invite for the event and work with you on a few items for planning & logistics. We’ll then share the character information with each individual player a few days before the event to give everyone a chance to familiarize themselves with their character.
On the day of the event, our Host will join via video conference and will lead the activity from start to finish. Our goal is to make your overall experience as seamless and as fun as possible!
All of our Hosts are fun, energetic, experienced and ready to show you and your friends a great time!
Our activities are available for booking 24 hours a day / 7 days a week!
If you let us know at least 72 hours in advance, then we’ll be happy to reschedule for free (woohoo!). However, if you let us know less than 72 hours in advance, then a 20% rescheduling fee will apply because we’ll have to compensate our hosts for rescheduling their time (it’s just the right thing to do).
