In the Murder Mystery Party Case File – Underwood Cellars, players work to solve a murder using the case file and evidence provided. It’s been 30 years since famed winemaker Cary Underwood disappeared. Due to a recent earthquake, his body has been discovered, along with more clues to crack this case. Work alone or with others to identify the killer’s motive, means and opportunity to commit the murder.

The Underwood Cellars Case File contains over 50 pieces of evidence to help detectives determine who had the motive, means and opportunity to pull off the murder of Cary Underwood. The Underwood Cellars Case File includes crime scene photos, witness interviews, newspaper clippings, and much more to help you determine who committed murder.

During a murder investigation, a detective must answer the following three questions:

Motive: Who had a reason to kill the victim? Did any particular person benefit - financially or romantically - from the victim's death? Was it a case of revenge?

Means: Who had access to the murder weapon and victim? Did any particular person have the unique knowledge, skill or physical ability necessary to use the murder weapon?

Opportunity: Who had a chance to kill the victim? Is any particular person unaccounted for (has no alibi) during the time the victim was killed?

Optional: bring a beverage for yourself and a snack or dish to share. (Water and tea will be provided.)

In the 2400s, mankind begins to terraform the planet Mars. Giant corporations, sponsored by the World Government on Earth, initiate huge projects to raise the temperature, the oxygen level, and the ocean coverage until the environment is habitable. In Terraforming Mars, you play one of those corporations and work together in the terraforming process, but compete for getting victory points that are awarded not only for your contribution to the terraforming, but also for advancing human infrastructure throughout the solar system, and doing other commendable things.

The players acquire unique project cards (from over two hundred different ones) by buying them to their hand. The cards can give you immediate bonuses, as well as increasing your production of different resources. Many cards also have requirements and they become playable when the temperature, oxygen, or ocean coverage increases enough. Buying cards is costly, so there is a balance between buying cards and actually playing them. Standard Projects are always available to complement your cards. Your basic income, as well as your basic score, is based on your Terraform Rating. However, your income is complemented with your production, and you also get VPs from many other sources.

Each player keeps track of their production and resources on their player boards, and the game uses six types of resources: MegaCredits, Steel, Titanium, Plants, Energy, and Heat. On the game board, you compete for the best places for your city tiles, ocean tiles, and greenery tiles. You also compete for different Milestones and Awards worth many VPs. Each round is called a generation and consists of the following phases:

1. Player order shifts clockwise.
2. Research phase: All players buy cards from four privately drawn.
3. Action phase: Players take turns doing 1-2 actions from these options: Playing a card, claiming a Milestone, funding an Award, using a Standard project, converting plant into greenery tiles (and raising oxygen), converting heat into a temperature raise, and using the action of a card in play. The turn continues around the table (sometimes several laps) until all players have passed.
4. Production phase: Players get resources according to their terraform rating and production parameters.

When the three global parameters (temperature, oxygen, ocean) have all reached their goal, the terraforming is complete, and the game ends after that generation. Count your Terraform Rating and other VPs to determine the winning corporation!
