Interactive gameplay seamlessly integrates real-world resources into your sleuthing, including Google maps, phone numbers, websites, and more.

He confides in you his terrible suspicion: there is a traitor in the ranks of the family! You must investigate the “loyal” family members, examine documents, and interview witnesses. Every decision affects how the story develops. Will you restore your family’s code and identify the rogue mafia member?

Review: We have played quite a few murder mystery games - Unsolved Case Files, Hunt A Killer, Hidden Games, University Games, Medical Mysteries, Chronicles Of Crime and even several from the Exit series, and seriously this is probably one of the best, if not the best. Wasn't expecting much for the price but the materials are great quality, very well thought out and logical whilst not frustratingly difficult it is still satisfying. A smart phone is a must and some lateral thinking with the internet is required, but unlike other games that send you down rabbit holes of wild theories that go nowhere everything here is relevant and consistent in it's in world logic. The gameplay is really cool too, a bit like Chronicles Of Crime with its location based investigation but without the annoying QR code and turn limits, you can just settle into the world and not feel rushed. Also throws in a bit like of Choose Your Own adventure where you have critical decisions that can change how the story evolves. Great value for money for the amount of entertainment you can squeeze out of it, highly recommended.
Review: I bought Masters of Crime: Vendetta at a super low price, and honestly it exceeded every expectation I had. The overall presentation is great the box arrived in perfect condition with no dents or crushed corners, and the materials inside feel sturdy and well-made. It doesn’t have that cheap, flimsy vibe that some boxed items tend to have. This one actually feels premium for what it costs. The shipping was incredibly fast, way quicker than I expected. Everything came well protected and ready to use right out of the box. For the price I paid, this is absolutely worth it a thousand times. It turned out to be way more fun and much better quality than I assumed when I ordered it. If you catch it on sale, don’t hesitate. The value for money is excellent, the quality is solid, and it arrived in perfect shape. Easy 5 stars.
