Awkward Guests is a unique deduction game with infinite replayability. You can investigate the murder of Mr. Emulating Walton in so many different ways, you'll never play two similar games! (Mr. Walton won't thank you for this.) The game challenges you to use real detective skills to solve each case. To solve a mystery, you must interrogate the suspects, interrogate the housekeeping staff, investigate the crime scene, search for clues around the Walton Mansion, and consult police reports. You'll do all this while exchanging information with your opponents or hiding it from them, so prepare to use all your gumshoe skills! The Games Friends: Awkward Guests is FANTASTIC! Each case is different and unique and certainly the more difficult scenarios provide a wonderful challenge. Because you pass on the cards, there is quite a lot of interaction in the game, but it all comes down to the right tactical choices. A real hit!

ScandalOh! is a "Brilliant Deck System" deduction game about investigative journalism in which each game has a different scenario and players must uncover a scandal. The game challenges you to use real investigative skills to solve each case. To get the scoop, you'll need to keep an eye on the celebrities and their contacts, question the newspaper editors, search around town for clues, and consult your sources. You'll do all this while exchanging information with your opponents or hiding it from them, so prepare to use all your deductive skills! The heart of ScandalOh! is simple: players have a hand of seven cards and each card has a value (1 or 2 points, depending on the amount of information it provides) and different references (i.e. the subjects of the card information). During a turn you ask for information about three different references you are interested in. The rest of the players can offer you cards containing the requested references, and you can trade those cards by giving the players the same number of points as they offered via cards in your hand. After each round ends, players can try to uncover the scandal. If the actual scandal is not revealed, players discard part of their hands and receive three new cards. The player or players who discover the scandal first win.

Awkward Guests 2: The Berwick Cases is a title in the Awkward Guests series, designed specifically for two players or teams. This dice, mystery, and deduction game challenges you to not only solve the murder of one of the Berwick twins, but also to plan the murder of her sister. The game recreates the two murders of the Berwick sisters in different ways. Players take on a different role in each case. In one case, one player takes on the role of the mastermind planning the murder, while the other player takes on the role of an investigator trying to solve the crime. The first investigator to correctly answer three crucial questions—who killed Beatrice or Berenice Berwick, how the killer killed her, and why—wins the game. During their turn, the investigator rolls the interrogation dice and places the results on the game board to determine what information they want from their rival, the mastermind. They can interrogate suspects, scrutinize the housekeeping staff, inspect the crime scene, search the Berwick Manor for clues, or consult the police reports. The mastermind then reveals the requested information. With these new clues, the investigator can draw conclusions and further unravel the case.
