Step 2 — Evidence Pack A (10 min read + 15 min Round 1)

Study the first set of evidence

Each player reads their role's evidence first, then share with the group.

Suspect Profiles 📦 Evidence Pack A

Step 3 — Round 2: Test Alibis (15 min)

Cross-check alibis against the timeline

Every suspect's alibi must be tested against physical evidence on the Timeline Board.

Step 4 — Evidence Pack B (Round 3, 15 min)

The contradictions are buried in here

Only open after Round 2 is complete. Alibis that held in Pack A may not survive Pack B.

📦 Evidence Pack B

Step 5 — Evidence Pack C (Round 4, host-unlocked)

Law Enforcement Cooperation File — Sealed

Host unlocks Pack C only after the group correctly identifies that the suicide note was staged AND has named a specific suspect. Do not open early — Pack C resolves the case entirely and is meaningless without the prior deduction.

Step 6 — Final Accusation (10 min)

Each player files an accusation. Lead Detective announces the official call.
